Mineral-insulated sheathed thermocouples are used in industry for temperature measurement in places that are difficult to access, as they are extremely flexible and enable high measurement accuracy. In addition, mineral-insulated thermocouples have good resistance to mechanical stress and vibrations. Their fast response times are particularly impressive for small external diameters. High-quality sheathed thermocouples also have a long service life. An indispensable product with a wide range of applications in industry and research.
Some compositions are available as standard versions, but most sheathed thermocouples are manufactured to customer specifications in every conceivable design. The composition of an individual sheathed thermocouple is very simple.
The structure of a sheathed thermocouple works like a modular system. Various sheathed thermocouples can be designed, each of which can be combined with a measuring point and a selection of connections. This results in the following basic variants:
