Easy legionella prevention

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

Spot checks on boxed in pipes or high level tanks are said to be faster and more practical with remote thermocouple monitoring points located up to 20 metres away, TM Electronics says.

Each port houses a thermocouple connection, linked to the water outlet by a fine wire sensor. Plug in a thermometer for an accurate, instant result. The points are now available in red and blue for hot and cold feeds into tmvs. 

The thermocouple temperature sensor monitoring point has made legionella prevention easier for many water hygiene companies and facilities managers by facilitating simple spot checks on test points with difficult access.

The port is designed for use with fine wire probes which are attached to the temperature test point and left in-situ. These wires are then run to the port – a wall-mounted, small white box. This allows temperatures to be taken by ‘plugging’ a standard thermocouple thermometer into the wall port – easier and less time-consuming than dismantling boxing below sinks or using ladders to access covered tanks.
