A thermocouple consists of two dissimilar metals, joined together at one end. When the junction of the two metals is cooled or heated a voltage is produced that can be correlated back to the
temperature. Most thermocouple alloys are commonly available as wire. Thermocouples are manufactured in different combinations of metals and/or calibrations. The calibrations most regularly specified by Weed
Instrument customers are J, K, T and E. High
temperature calibrations include R, S, C and GB. Each...
