Thermocouple & Thermometer & Bare thermocouple wire & Bare thermocouple wire


Bare thermocouple wire

Features:

Thermocouple is the most adapted method for measuring temperatures, sometimes the only available method. Thermocouples are among others used for nuclear reactors, nuclear submarines, jet aero engines, industrial furnaces and other industrial heat treatment (measurement and control of temperature).
Thermocouples can be created with various combinations of alloys.
Our thermocouple alloys wire can be used to measure temperatures from – 200 °C to higher temperatures up to 1260°C.
