T-type thermocouple

Mar 08, 2021

Introduction:

A T-type thermocouple is also called a copper-constantan thermocouple. Its positive electrode (TP) is pure copper, and its negative electrode (TN) is a copper-nickel alloy called constantan.


Use environment:

1: Not resistant to high temperature, high-temperature use is not recommended


Advantages of T-type thermocouple:

1. T-type thermocouple has good linearity,

2. The thermal electromotive force is larger,

3. High sensitivity,

4. The temperature is approximately linear

5. Good reproducibility,

6. Fast heat transfer

7. Stability

8. Good uniformity

9. Cheap


Disadvantages of T-type thermocouple:

1: The positive electrode (copper) has poor oxidation resistance at high temperatures, so it is not resistant to high temperatures
