Available in thermocouple types K, T, J, N and they have an insulated junction and are terminated in a standard round pin thermocouple plug. Suitable for use up to 600ºC (at tip) with a bolt thread size of 1/2 inch UNF20, 316 stainless steel.
» Suitable for plastics machinery and general purpose applications these assemblies are available in thermocouple types K, T, J, N and E with an industry standard one slot adjustable bayonet cap fitting. The fitting can be fine tuned for positioning on site and is suitable where several applications in your plant require individual positioning of the assembly. The sensor is mineral insulated with a diameter of 4.5mm as standard but a 3.0mm option is available and rated to 800°C and can therefore be bent after installation for exact positioning. A choice of leads is available including stainless steel braided cable or flexible stainless steel conduit. As with any mineral insulated thermocouple the junction can be grounded or insulated.
» Suitable for plastics machinery and general purpose applications, these assemblies are supplied with a 200mm spring on which an industry standard one slot adjustable bayonet cap fitting is screwed onto for fine positioning on site. These assemblies are available in thermocouple types K, T, J, N and E and the sensing tip is incorporated within an 18mm long x 4.7, 6.0 or 8.0mm diameter (specify as d1) tube which the stainless steel braided leads are sealed into.
