Thermocouple
A thermocouple is a temperature sensor that generates a voltage proportional to temperature. It consists of two dissimilar metal conductors joined at a measuring junction and is widely used for robust industrial temperature measurement.
Product Overview
Product Overview
Thermocouples are temperature sensors that generate a voltage related to temperature. A thermocouple consists of two conductors made from different metals joined at one end. As the temperature difference changes between the measuring junction and the reference end, a measurable voltage is produced.
Different metal combinations provide different voltage responses, allowing thermocouples to cover a wide range of temperatures and accuracy requirements. Selection typically depends on the required measuring range, operating environment, response speed and installation conditions.
