- Thermocouple sensors with protection heads are commonly used in industrial temperature measurement applications where the sensor may be exposed to harsh environments, such as in chemical processing plants, refineries, or manufacturing facilities. J-type, K-type, and N-type thermocouples are all commonly used in these types of applications, and each has its own unique characteristics and temperature ranges.
- J-type thermocouples are composed of a positive iron element and a negative constantan element and are typically used in the temperature range of -40°C to 750°C. They are commonly used in applications such as ovens, kilns, and furnaces.
- K-type thermocouples are composed of a positive chromium element and a negative aluminum element and are typically used in the temperature range of -200°C to 1350°C. They are commonly used in applications such as engines, turbines, and heating systems.
- N-type thermocouples are composed of a positive Nicrosil element and a negative Nisil element and are typically used in the temperature range of -270°C to 1300°C. They are commonly used in applications such as aerospace and semiconductor manufacturing.
- Each of these thermocouple types can be fitted with a protective head to provide an additional level of protection against harsh environments. Protection heads are typically made of metal or ceramic and provide a secure and protective enclosure for the thermocouple element, as well as a convenient location for wiring and signal conditioning electronics. They are available in a variety of materials and styles to meet the needs of different applications.
