Feedthroughs

Thermal Detection manufacture a range of pharmaceutical feedthrough glands for sealing on a wide range of temperature measurement devices in autoclaves, freeze driers and lyophilizers. 

An essential requirement when sealing thermocouples and temperature probes is to ensure minimal chamber leakage during a cycle. This is often difficult to achieve, but the following products were carefully designed to overcome this and they have successfully proved their value over many years:

For validation wire thermocouples: 

The Thermocouple Entry Gland can seal up to 36 thermocouples into an autoclave. 

The Conax HD Gland is a mechanically sealed gland for passing up to 30 thermocouples into a vacuum or pressure system, ideal for validation or mapping of pharmaceutical freeze dryer or lyophilizer.

For autoclave chamber and load probes:

Feedthroughs are available for feeding multiple temperature probes into an autoclave.

Hygienic compression fittings with tri-clover connection

316 stainless compression fittings with NPT, BSPT, BSPP and Metric threads for the feedthrough of a single temperature probe
