Honeywell 121371A/U – 1/2" NPT x 3" Copper Aquastat Well with Mounting Clip
The Honeywell 121371A/U is a 3-inch immersion well designed for use with Aquastat temperature controllers in hydronic heating systems. It provides a thermally conductive housing for the sensor bulb, allowing accurate temperature measurement while isolating the sensing element from direct exposure to pressurized system fluids.
Constructed from copper for corrosion resistance and efficient heat transfer, this well features 1/2" NPT male threads for threaded boiler tapping installation and includes a clip to secure the sensing bulb inside the well.
