High Temperature Thermocouple with IP67 heavy duty cast iron head (Type 14)

High Temperature Ceramic Sheathed Thermocouples

  • These ceramic sheathed thermocouple sensors are used for temperature measurement up to 1600°C plus in kilns, furnaces and flues etc
  • These assemblies are available as standard with primary and optional secondary ceramic protective sheaths in a range of diameters of; impervious aluminous porcelain, impervious recrystallised alumina, impervious mullite and silicon carbide
  • Alternatively, we have a large range of sensors available to buy online in various diameters and lengths
  • UKAS calibration is available for our range of Ceramic Sheathed Thermocouple assemblies
  • Assemblies in all the common high temperature thermocouple conductor combinations are available in both simplex or duplex styles
  • Available attachment fittings include adjustable flanges or welded bushes

Materials
Max.
Temperature
IAP Impervious Aluminous Porcelain
Suitable for base metal thermocouples.
Low temperature coefficient.
Suited to kiln applications.
Requires support at high temperatures if horizontal.
1400°C
IM Impervious Mullite
For use with precious metal thermocouples
Great mechanical strength.
Relatively inert to suplhurous and carbonaceous atmospheres.
Often used as a secondary sheath with silicone carbide primary.
1600ºC
IRA Impervious Recrystallised Alumina
For use with precious metal thermocouples.
Fair thermal shcok resistance. High inertness to chemicals.
Ideal for reducing carbonaceous atmospheres.
High resistance to alkaline and other fluxes.
1800°C
SC Silicone Carbide
A Porous material with outstanding resistance to thermal shock.
Good mechanical strength.
Often used as a primary sheath material enclosing a secondary.
Unsuitable for highly oxidising atmospheres.

INSULATED
Hot junction insulated from sheath. Gives floating output with typical insulation resistance in excess of 100 megohms

GROUNDED
Hot junction welded to sheath tip giving earthed output and faster response to temperature changes

EXPOSED
Fastest response mainly for the measurement of air temperature in ducts. Restricted to a maximum operating temperature of 600ºC
