Mineral Insulated Thermocouples

What is a Mineral Insulated Thermocouple?

A mineral insulated (MI) thermocouple consists of conductors embedded in highly compacted magnesium oxide inside a metal sheath. This design offers excellent durability, flexibility, and temperature resistance.

We manufacture MI thermocouples, supplying standard and custom built sensors for industrial, scientific, and OEM applications worldwide.
