We offer a wide range of thermocouples for industrial and automation applications
Temperature measurement is one of the most important tasks in automation – in industrial conditions, thermocouples and resistive temperature detectors (RTDs) are most commonly used.
Thermocouples – applications
Thermocouples, also called thermoelectric temperature sensors, are one of the most popular solutions for temperature measurement in industry. Their main application areas include laboratories, transportation, measuring and control equipment, data acquisition systems, multi-channel automatic devices, scanners, thermal imaging systems, and military equipment.
Advantages of thermocouples:
- low cost;
- simple, durable, and reliable design;
- predictable output voltages;
- can be used in chemically aggressive environments;
- wide temperature measurement range from -100°C up to over 2500°C;
- high measurement accuracy.
What types of thermocouples are there?
Several types of metal alloys are used to make thermocouples, each designed for different applications.
Type E – alloys suitable for temperatures from -200°C to 871°C. Used in atmospheres ranging from vacuum to mildly oxidizing and at very low temperatures.
Type J – alloys suitable for lower temperatures (0°C to 600°C). Used in the chemical industry (plastic production).
Type K – the industrial standard for temperatures up to 1250°C.
Type T – alloys suitable for temperatures from -200°C to 350°C. Commonly used in the food industry.
