Thermocouples - Miniature Assemblies with Hex Fittings and Heads

Miniature Thermocouple Assemblies have a maximum service temperature of 1300° F (700°C) depending on the type and guage of the thermocouple wire used. They have limited use at higher temperatures due to the types of insulation used in theri construction. Miniature thermocouples are more felexible than MGO (Swaged) types. 1/8”, 3/16” and 1/4” O.D. tube assemblies are made with silicon impregnated fiberglass elements. ! Note: If you would like to order a Type E, J, N, or Type T assembly, just substitute the “ K “ with a “ E “, “ J “, “ N “, or “ T ” in the part numbers listed on this page. Double element assemblies are also available. Add a ” D ” to the part number. Example: 20K4DM-9M4-48-SH. Probes can also be made with Types: B, R, and S, phone for details. Also, sheaths can be made of other materials and sizes - see page on “Miniature Tubes”.

Application

Miniature, Hex Fitting Miniature Thermocouple Assemblies with a hex fitting ( HX ) are used where a stainless steel 1/2” x 1/2” NPT fitting is desirable for mounting to the process and connection head. The hex fittings are welded to the tube for strength and proper sealing. A grounded junction is standard to help prevent the element from pulling out of the tube. The elements in hex fitting assemblies are made with silicon impregnated fiberglass insulated wire.
