IWTTU Series, Thermocouples, Temperature Probes

Thermocouples and Temperature Probes are specialized devices used to measure temperature by exploiting the principle of thermoelectric effect. They consist of two dissimilar conductors that form junctions at different temperatures, generating a voltage proportional to the temperature difference. These temperature sensors come in various element types, including IC (Integrated Circuit), J-type, K-type, Pt100, T-type, and thermistor. Each element type is designed to accommodate different temperature ranges and offer specific advantages for particular applications. For example, K-type thermocouples are widely used for general-purpose temperature measurements, while Pt100 sensors provide higher accuracy and stability. The temperature range covered by thermocouples and temperature probes is extensive, with measurements possible from -200°C to 1350°C. This wide range enables their application in diverse industries, such as automotive, aerospace, food processing, and scientific research. In addition to the element types and temperature range, the lead wire lengths of these sensors vary. They can range from shorter lengths, such as 3.70" (94.00mm), to longer lengths like 26.247' (8m). This flexibility in lead wire lengths allows for customization based on specific installation requirements and environmental conditions. Thermocouples and Temperature Probes are widely used due to their durability, reliability, and ability to withstand harsh environments. Their versatility in measuring temperature across a broad range makes them indispensable tools in various industries where accurate temperature monitoring is critical. In summary, Thermocouples and Temperature Probes utilize the thermoelectric effect to measure temperature. With different element types and temperature ranges, they cater to a wide range of applications. Their varying lead wire lengths provide flexibility for installation, making them essential tools for accurate temperature measurement in diverse industries.
