A robust thermocouple assembly designed for high-temperature process measurement where resistance thermometers are not suitable. The instrument is supplied as a complete assembly including measuring insert, protective sheath, and connection head, ready for field installation.
Frequently Asked Questions
What temperature range can a thermocouple cover? Depending on the calibration type, thermocouples can measure from cryogenic temperatures up to well over 1,000 degrees C.
How does it differ from a Pt100? Thermocouples are typically chosen for higher temperatures and faster response, while Pt100 sensors are preferred for high accuracy at moderate temperatures.
Is a transmitter required? Not strictly. The millivolt output can be wired directly to compatible inputs, but an in-head transmitter is commonly used to deliver a 4-20 mA signal.
