Mineral Insulated Thermocouple Sensor with Miniature Plug/Socket
Product Code: TFP/TFLP/TFS
Commonly used in applications where a quick, simple connection is required. Available with probe diameters ranging from 0.5mm up to 3.0mm and supplied with a miniature flat-pinned plug or socket rated up to +200°C (higher temperature versions also available).
Various probe sheath materials are available and the sensors can be used in a wide variety of applications, with temperatures ranging from as low as -100°C and up to +1300°C.
The mineral insulated construction enables the sensors to be bent, twisted or flattened without impairing performance. The bending radius of the sheath is 10 x probe diameter; this can be reduced to 4 x, if a bending set is used.
The sensors can be supplied in lengths to suit your application requirements.
