   Clamp-On Strap, Spring-Loaded Strap and Remote Probes are designed to monitor water temperature in retrofit or filled pipe applications. The strap units fit around the outside of a pipe, greatly reducing installation cost. While the Remote Probe units are strapped directly onto the pipe.

   All three units measure the water temperature by sensing the surface temperature of the pipe. The Strap Units have etched Teflon leadwires and double encapsulated sensors and come standard with a Junction Box enclosure. The Clamp-On Unit and the Remote Probes are available with an optional watertight BAPI-Box or BAPI-Box 2 enclosure. The Spring Loaded Unit is available with an optional BAPI-Box 2 enclosure.

   Clamp-On Strap — This unit has a bendable copper sensing plate which forms to the curvature of the pipe. An adjustable hose clamp is used to firmly hold the unit in place around the pipes up to 4.5”.

   Spring-Loaded Strap — Instead of removing the pipe insulation, the spring loaded sensing pad is held against the pipe through a hole cut in the insulation. It can be used with pipes up to 14.5” with up to 2” of insulation.

   Remote Probes — These units have a 1.75” long stainless steel probe with either Plenum-Rated Cable or FEP-Jacketed Cable with a lead length of 18” (Other lengths are available by calling BAPI). Remote Probes are ideal for strap-on applications, or hard-to-access areas.

Immersion Units
Clamp-On Strap Units and Spring-Loaded Strap Units should only be used as a temporary measure to monitor water temperature as Immersion Units will be more responsive. BAPI’s Immersion Units are available with a Junction Box, Weatherproof Enclosure, Weather Tight Enclosure or a BAPI-Box Enclosure.
