1. Calibration

Select One: Type J Type K Type T Type E Type S Type R Type N Type B Other Maximum temperature limits for each ANSI type thermocouple materials are given (see “more info” button), however these will vary depending on sheath materials, application atmospheres, wire gauge size, insulating materials and epoxy composition.

2. Junction

Tip Style: Round Tip Flat Tip 118 Deg. Drill Tip Tip style defines the surface area or shape of the thermocouple sensing tip, i.e. round tip (std), flat tip, drill point tip (118 deg), etc., which is determined by your application process.  The type junction again is determined by the application, i.e., ungrounded for process noise isolation, longer life, whereas, in general a grounded junction provides a compromise between performance (fast response) and thermocouple life.  Each style and type of junction has its advantages and disadvantages see “more info” button for specific information. Type: Grounded Ungrounded

3. Element Type

Select One: Single Duplex Up to three separate thermocouples in a single sheath.  Separate ungrounded junctions can be wired to different instruments.

4. Sheath Material

Select One: 304SS 316SS Other The application dictates the choice of sheath materials.  304SS and 316SS are most commonly used but temperatures and corrosive conditions can necessitate the use of other materials.

5. Sheath Diameter

Select One: .125" .188" The Mineral Insulated thermocouples come in a number of sizes but the choice is greatly influenced by the maximum temperature of the application.  For high temp applications bigger is better.

6. Sheath Length "L"

Enter Inches: Although the accuracy of the thermocouple is not affected by the length of the sheath consult the factory when the probe length exceeds 120 inches.

7. Leadwire Construction

Material: Fiberglass Teflon® Kapton Other Know the application atmosphere and limitations – temperature, moisture, corrosion and abrasion.  Flexible wire is available in solid or stranded conductors with many sizes (gauge), insulations and calibrations to meet nearly all applications. Configuration: Solid Conductor Solid Conductor - SS Overbraid Solid Conductor - SS Armor Stranded Conductor Stranded Conductor - SS Overbraid Stranded Conductor - SS Armor

8. Leadwire Gauge

Select One: 26 Gauge 24 Gauge 20 Gauge Insulated wire, solid or stranded, in a variety of insulations is carried in the most common sizes from 16 to 24 gauge.

9. Armor Length "A"

Enter Inches:

10. Leadwire Terminations

Select One: No Split / No Strip Split Leads Spade Lugs Ring Lugs 1/4 Push-on Bx Connector w/ #8 lugs Std Male Plug Std Female Jack Mini Male Plug Mini Female Jack Other The type of termination selected may be restricted by the wire gauge.   For Plugs and Jacks Only: Temperature: None Std (425 F) Hi (660 F) Ceramic (1200 F) Clamp: Yes No
