R1/2 x 65 mm pockets for Ø 5.8 mm sensor, stainless steel

The great advantage of mounting a temperature sensor in a pocket is that the temperature sensor can be replaced afterwards without having to shut off the water. Pocket sensors are thus most often used in conjunction with larger meters, e.g. in a distribution network. A pocket sensor mounted in a pocket has the disadvantage that the total mass is larger and therefore reacts more slowly to temperature changes, which may affect the measured amount of heat energy.
