ThermoExpert® - we are behind successful solutions for temperature measurement, temperature generation and individual heating solutions for industry and research.

Mineral-insulated thermocouples with flattened measuring point (VMA/IMA) are required, for example, for temperature measurement on pumps and housings or on test benches - wherever temperature is to be measured in gaps, on surfaces or at low mounting heights. Typical applications are used in mechanical engineering, in the automotive industry, but also in the research and development departments of universities and institutes.
The tip of the thermocouple with the measuring point is flattened in several manufacturing steps so that the contact surface of the thermocouple is enlarged. This facilitates fixing in the corresponding application or stabilizes the connection with a mechanical component.

Mineral-insulated thermocouples with tapered measuring point are our answer to the question of short response times but stable and resilient processing or if, for example, threaded holes require a taper due to their design. Only one end of the thermocouple including the measuring point is reduced in diameter, so that it remains extremely robust overall and can be ideally inserted into bores or threads by means of welding sleeves or through-bolts.
