Norm references / Approvals

  • Space-saving and flexible
  • For more detailed information, see appendix T8 and data sheets

Application range

  • Allows temperature measurement even in places where non-contact temperature measurement is not possible or reasonable
  • The thermocouple is used to measure temperature as a part of monitoring the manufacturing process, thus the sheath material should be selected with reference to the maximum ambient temperature at its junction.
  • Conductor materials (alloys):
    Fe/CuNi (LX, JX)
    Conductor alloys are identical to thermocouple alloys
  • NiCr/Ni (K, KX, KCA)
    K and KX version - conductor alloys are identical to thermocouple alloys
    KCA version: compensating alloys (for KCA: Fe/CuNi), not identical to thermocouple alloys
  • PtRh/Pt (RCB, SCB)
    Compensating alloys (for RCB, SCB: Cu/CuNi) are not identical to thermocouple alloys
