Resistance temperature detectors (RTDs) & Resistance Thermometers

Resistance temperature detectors (RTDs), also known as resistance thermometers, accurately sense process temperatures with an excellent degree of repeatability and interchangeability of elements. The RTD is composed of certain metallic elements whose change in resistance is a function of temperature. In operation, a small excitation current is passed across the element, and the voltage, which […]

Thermocouples, Thermocouple Assemblies & Replacements

Thermocouples are the most common, convenient, and versatile devices used to measure temperature. They convert units of heat into useable engineering units that serve as input signals for process controllers and recorders. A thermocouple consists of a welded ‘hot’ junction between two dissimilar metals – usually wires – and a reference junction at the opposite […]

Thermowell Products

A thermowell is a pressure-tight receptacle that protects and extends the life of a temperature sensor in processing applications where the sensor is not mechanically or chemically compatible with the process environment. Installed directly into piping systems, thermowells facilitate sensor replacement in high-pressure pipelines and eliminate the need to interrupt the process flow or drain the process system […]

Thermocouples & Thermocouple Assemblies

 

Thermocouples are the most common, convenient, and versatile devices used to measure temperature. They convert units of heat into useable engineering units that serve as input signals for process controllers and recorders.

A thermocouple consists of a welded ‘hot’ junction between two dissimilar metals – usually wires – and a reference junction at the opposite ends of the parent materials. Heating the ‘hot’ junction in the working environment produces a temperature gradient which generates an Electromotive Force (EMF). The EMF appears across the free ends of the thermocouple wires where it is measured and converted into units of heat calibration. Through a selection of appropriate thermocouple wires and sheath components, thermocouples are suitable to be used in temperature ranges from (-200 to 2316) °C [-328 to 4200] °F.

Pyromation produces a wide range of thermocouples for most market applications, including MgO (Magnesium Oxide), and industrial and general-purpose types. We also make thermocouple assemblies for hazardous locations and other applications that require connection heads, protection tubes, thermowells, and/or transmitters.
