Swaged Thermocouple with 316 Stainless Steel head

Swaged Tip Thermocouples

  • Mineral insulated thermocouple sensors have a high integrity construction, suited to arduous operating conditions at temperatures from -200ºC to +1400ºC. (The maximum operating temperature is dependant on diameter and environmental factors, further guidance is available here.)
  • Custom built to your specification and terminated in a weatherproof 316 Stainless Steel, screw top terminal head with the tube entry and cable entry at a right angle to each other, with a ceramic terminal block. Suitable for simplex and duplex assemblies. Supplied with a 20mm x 1.5mm ISO metal pinch gland on the cable entry for cables from 6mm to 14mm diameter
  • Alternatively, we have a large range of sensors available to buy online in various diameters and lengths
  • Rugged large diameter whilst a low thermal mass reduced tip provides a fast response
  • The process of swaging increases the strength of the sheath by enhancing the grain structure during forming
  • Available in thermocouple types K, T, J, N, E, R, S & B in lengths from a few millimetres to 200 metres or more dependent on the sheath diameter selected

* 5.5mm and 10.8mm diameters are a thick wall heavy duty construction

INSULATED
Hot junction insulated from sheath. Gives floating output with typical insulation resistance in excess of 100 megohms

GROUNDED
Hot junction welded to sheath tip giving earthed output and faster response to temperature changes

EXPOSED
Fastest response mainly for the measurement of air temperature in ducts. Restricted to a maximum operating temperature of 600ºC
