Melt-Bolt sensors are designed to mount directly into extruder heads or into the injection moulding machine nozzle with the tip protruding directly into the Teflon® melt.
Sensing the temperature of Teflon® is especially difficult due to the elevated temperatures and corrosive conditions found in that environment.
Immersion lengths, lead wire options, and wire terminations are available in a wide range of possible configurations.
The melt bolt tip is manufactured of Alloy C-276 with the balance of the bolt made of 316 Stainless Steel
The Alloy C-276 tip is designed to withstand the corrosive conditions and increased pressures of Teflon® melt. Grounded or Ungrounded junctions can be supplied.
