Installation 

 

Carrier’s standard Immersion sensors are made to install into a ½” NPT female thread. Typically a Threadolet or Tee is 
installed into the pipe, but a hole can also be drilled and tapped. 

 

Figure 2 

 

The pipe/system will need to be drained, unless a Hot Tap is being used. The recommend drill size is 23/32 in. (18 mm). 
Drill the hole, and tap the hole with ½”-14NPT. Always use proper thread sealants on tapered pipe threads of the 
thermowell. Screw the thermowell into the Threadolet, Tee, or tapped hole, using a wrench to tighten it firmly. Refill the 
system and check for leaks. Best practice is to apply thermal grease to the end of the probe, but not required. Insert and 
push the sensor probe into the thermowell. Turn the sensor probe assembly clockwise to tighten down completely. Refer 
to the 

Wiring Instructions

 to make necessary connections.
