How to choose your Thermocouple

Tip shape
Fine Thermocouple
The fine Thermocouple tip is ideally suited to temperature measurement of very small components, with a fast response time and high accuracy. The bare wire thermocouple tip can be fixed using an Ag paste. This type of Thermocouple is  recommended as an OEM product not as a reusable Thermocouple. The Standard tip diameter is 25 micron, with a 13 micron diameter tip for special applications.
Sheet Thermocouple

The sheet Thermocouple is designed to measure surface temperature. They can also offer high strength, high accuracy and a fast response time. We would recommend using single sided, black body Thermocoulpes with capton tape to secure the Thermocouple as this will absorb the Infra-red energy. photo

Fine and Sheet Thermocouple
Rolling milled fine Thermocouples, 25 or 50 micron.
The 25 micron diameter tip wire is roll milled to 10 micron thick, and the 50 micron diameter tip wire is roll milled to 20 micron thick.
Very fast response and high accuracy.
Recommended for applications such as silicon wafer.
Multi purpose Thermocouple
Available with 100 or 200 micron wire, these Thermocouples have a wire shaped tip not a ball as used in some Thermocouples. This gives a faster response time and greater accuracy. This is a very robust Thermocouple. Multi purpose Thermocouples are recommended for applications where the temperature is not changing rapidly. The Thermocouple tip can be fixed using solder or ceramic bonding into or onto the substrate being measured.
Insulation
Glass
Glass insulation will operate at a constant temperature not exceeding 250°C temperatures up to 300°C would be acceptable only for short periods of time. Glass insulation is very flexible, however, it may not be suited to clean room applications.  Detail
Teflon
Maximum operating temperature for Teflon is 200°C we would recommend Teflon for measuring the temperature of liquids, chemicals, and any application where it would be open to the elements. Detail
Ceramic
Suitable for applications where high temperatures are likely, for example ovens, furnaces, rocket / jet engine exhaust ports etc. However this material would not be suitable for any applications involving water, as the ceramic bond would dissolve in water Detail
Insulated wire diameter.
200 micron
200 micron wire would be used if mechanical strength is a concern and would be recommended for any application where the cable would be longer than 2 meters, to minimise interference by external electromagnetic interference. Detail
100 micron
100 micron wire would have very good properties for bending around a small radius. However; it would be more susceptible to external interference from any electromagnetic waves. Not recommended for cable lengths exceeding 2 metres.     Detail
Option
Solder coat Tip
This type of bare wire Thermocouple is easy to attach in applications where a solder joint is possible.
One sided black body
Sheet Thermocouples can be attached to the substrate by capton tape, we recommend our patented one sided black body Thermocouples. The black body can absorb the infra-red energy resulting in a faster response time. photo
Connector

For easy connection to data logger or monitoring equipment. Photo
Insulation on bare wire & tip
Can be used to measure the surface temperature where a low voltage may be present. The insulated wire and tip can also protect the Thermocouple in corrosive liquids and harsh environments. The insulated wire will ensure that you are measuring the temperature at the tip and not along the wire length. Detail

The operating temperature for the insulation is 300°C. The insulation is applied in three seperate coats to prevent pin holes, however, this will increase the diameter as follows: 200 micron will increase to 210 micron, 25 micron to 28 micron, and 50 micron increases to 56 micron.

Insulation on bare wire only
(not on tip)
For applications where the bare wire could cause a short circuit, for example, if you are attaching the Thermocouple tip with solder, we would recommend this option.
Capton (polyimide) tape reinforcement
Reinforce connection between original wire and fine wire.
Bare wire length
Usually 10 mm, however it is possible to manufacture to your specific request between 5 mm & 23 mm without charge. But please take care, the longer the wire the more difficult it is to use.
Packing sheet
The Thermocouples are usually dispatched in cardboard to reduce any static build up, we can also offer acrylic resin sheet free of charge, for clean room applications. Please specify this when ordering.

* Please Note: Heat Resistance of Ceramic insulation is approximately 1000°C. However, 320 micron diameter wire will protrude from ceramic insulation, at a temperature of 600°C due to CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) mismatch between almel and chromel. We would therefore recommend that you choose 200 micron diameter wire, enabling measurement of higher temperatures.

Although we maintain strict quality control, during the manufacture of our products, some of the dimensions listed may vary.
