NPT 3/4”-14 weldolet for 2.5” or larger pipes and tanks - WOL-34NL
Description
Rheonics WOL-34NL accessory is an NPT weldolet used on 2.5” or larger pipes and tank installations. This weldolet is designed to ensure that the Rheonics SR-sensors sensing element is fully immersed in the flow, thus providing the correct measurement conditions using this type of installation.

Why use this part?
This part is often used for sensor probe installation on a line or tank.
Commercially available weldolets are not well suited for the standard 3/4“ NPT version of SRV or SRD as they tend to create large dead zone around the sensing element, thus giving unreliable measurements due to potential fouling/deposit intruding onto the sensing element.
WOL-34NL is designed with a shortened thread and height, ideal for 3/4“ NPT version of SRV and SRD.
Plugging of the gap in a standard off-the-shelf NPT weldolet (yellow highlighted in figure below) affects the sensing element. This affects the measurement accuracy and stability.
