Applications

Thermocouples are instruments that are designed to provide temperature measurement of substances and have a variety of applications such as;

• Medical - research into DNA and hypodermic insertion to detecting a tumour.


• Vehicle diagnostics - used to monitor and adjust factors such as battery health, exhaust readings, spark plug function and brake performance.


• Temperature readings in boilers, heating sensors, and ovens


• Food thermometers, industrial probes, and sensors

What is the difference between screened and unscreened cables?

Screened share a lot in common with unscreened cables however screened cables emit less electromagnetic energy which can cause signal interference with cables that are nearby.

What is a PT100 sensor?

A PT100 sensor is considered the most rugged and common form of an RTD (resistance temperature detector) and has a resistance of 100 ohms (Ω)
