Richards Thermocouple and Temperature Sensor Catalog 16

Molten Metal - Portable Pyrometers - Analog or Digital

Molten metal tip portable pyrometers are used for reading melt temperatures of non-ferrous metals such as Aluminum, Brass, Bronze (except Phosphor Bronze) and Magnesium. The tips are constructed from 446 stainless steel and have a maximum service temperature of 2300° F ( 1260° C ). Some other alloys, such as # 8 & # 9 may be specially ordered (Consult factory). The thermocouples are Type K and are within standard limits of error (special limits can be specially ordered). The reduced tip diameter allows for quick response times when immersed into the melt (about 25 seconds). The pyrometer assemblies with quartz tips are made with Type B, R, or S thermocouples, which give them a much higher service tempera- ture range. These tips are especially good for molten gold and silver applications up to 3000° F ( 1649° C ). All of the Richards portable pyrometer handles are constructed entirely from 304 stainless steel for maximum durability.
