My company has critical emergency diesel generators stationed throughout its infrastructure. We are looking for some expertise in modifying or replacing a temperature switch located on these engines that is exposed directly to the cooling system water. This switch sends a signal to the engine controls to shut down the engine in the event of high cooling water temperature. We would like to modify the switch to add a thermowell to allow for ease of removal for calibration and system functional testing. Does anyone have experience in this type of modification/design?

Check with "OMEGA Egineering" or "Watlow", they may have a standard Fix. Check Omega.com website for possible application solutions they may have posted. Some application examples are shown in their temperature sales catalog.
