Thermocouple Ceramic Products

The inherent simplicity of thermocouples makes them resistant to shock and vibration.

Thermocouple ceramic products. About selecting temperature sensors. Pyromation produces a wide range of thermocouples and thermocouple replacements for most market applications including mgo magnesium oxide industrial and general. Bend these probes up to 90 for a custom fit. Elements are insulated by a double bore high purity hardfired alumina insulator.

A type k thermocouple is made up of two dissimilar metals. A fine wire thermocouple junction takes up little space and has low mass making it suitable for point sensing and fast response. Type k thermocouples function over a temperature range of 300f to 2450f so they fit the needs of the majority of ceramicists. 21 hand held digital thermometers.

When choosing a ceramic protection tube material careful consideration. The thermocouple rtd terminal blocks shown in the catalog page link below fit all pyromation series 31 34 49 63 91 and 800 series connection heads. Ceramic thermocouple protection tubes are available in a variety of sizes and materials with alumina mullite and zirconia being the most commonly used. This superior refractory material has the combined properties of silicon nitride high strength hardness fracture toughness and low thermal expansion and aluminum oxide corrosion resistance chemically inert high temperature capabilities and oxidation resistance.

Through selection of appropriate thermocouple wires and sheath components thermocouples are suitable to be used in temperature ranges from 200 to 2316 c 328 to 4200 f. 6 ceramic thermocouple insulators. Thermocouples are temperature sensors which can be embedded into ceramic elements or ceramic heaters or inserted into cassette type quartz heating elements for the purpose of controlling or monitoring heater temperature the thermocouple consists of 2 specific dissimilar metals welded at 1 end to form a hot junction. Where the two metals meet they are welded together to form the tip of the thermocouple which is where the heat in your kiln is sensed.

The terminal blocks are provided with a steatite ceramic base brass terminal pieces and stainless steel screws. Protect thermocouple wiring from wear and corrosion with an armored stainless. Thick wire with ceramic insulation stands up to extreme air temperatures in forging. Thermocouple products a service orientated company since 1992 is still a leader in it s field and continues to offer top quality service and products.

View the thermocouple accuracy and color code charts. Ceramic thermocouple protection tubes are typically used to protect platinum thermocouple elements at high process temperatures above 2200 f. Omegatite 650 is the ceramic sheath which is an alloy of silicon nitride and aluminum oxide. Thermocouples with a noble metal junction may be rated as high as 1700 c 3100 f.

Thermocouple probes with armored cable for liquids and gases.
