Thermocouples

Thermocouples for industry

Thermocouples are devices used to measure high temperatures. It consists of two different types of metal wire, which create a voltage when they are at different temperatures. This voltage is then measured and can be used to calculate the temperature. The high temperature thermocouple can be used in many industries including automotive, aerospace, transport, agriculture, and metallurgy.

What is a thermocouple and how does it work?

A thermocouple is a device consisting of two different types of metal wire, usually platinum and rhodium. When these wires are at different temperatures, they create a voltage. This voltage can then be measured to calculate the temperature of the steel bath in a furnace.
