Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does TC Ltd manufacture?
    TC Ltd manufactures industrial temperature measurement products including thermocouples, RTD Pt100 sensors, thermocouple cables, connectors, temperature instrumentation and custom temperature sensing assemblies. TC Ltd provides standard and bespoke solutions for a wide range of industrial applications.
  • Where are TC Ltd thermocouples and RTD sensors manufactured?
    TC Ltd manufactures thermocouples and RTD Pt100 sensors at manufacturing facilities in the UK and other locations around the world. This global manufacturing capability enables TC Ltd to support customers internationally with standard products and application-specific temperature measurement solutions.
  • How do I choose the right thermocouple type?
    The right thermocouple depends on factors including temperature range, operating environment, chemical exposure, accuracy, response time and compatibility with existing instrumentation. TC Ltd engineers can assist with suitable thermocouple types, including Type K, J, T and N, as well as specialist designs for demanding applications.
  • Can TC Ltd manufacture custom thermocouples?
    Yes. TC Ltd manufactures bespoke thermocouples to customer drawings, specifications, samples or application requirements. Custom assemblies can be produced with different probe materials, diameters, lengths, terminations, connectors and protection options.
  • What is the difference between a thermocouple and an RTD sensor?
    A thermocouple measures temperature using the voltage generated by the junction of two dissimilar metals, while an RTD sensor measures temperature through changes in electrical resistance. Thermocouples are often selected for wide temperature ranges, fast response and rugged applications, while RTDs are commonly chosen where accuracy, stability and repeatability are important.
  • Does TC Ltd provide calibration services?
    Yes. TC Ltd provides UKAS-accredited calibration services for temperature measurement equipment, including thermocouples and RTD sensors. Calibration helps customers verify measurement accuracy and maintain traceability to recognised standards.
  • Which industries use TC Ltd temperature sensors?
    TC Ltd supplies temperature measurement solutions for a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, energy, food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, laboratory research, manufacturing, oil and gas, and HVAC.
