Thermocouple Info.

Thermocouples are temperature sensors that measure temperature by generating a small voltage signal proportional to the temperature difference between the junctions of two dissimilar metals. One junction (the hot junction) is typically encased in a metal sheath tube at the point of measurement; the other junction (the cold junction) is connected to the measuring instrument. The measurement instrument measures the voltage signal and the cold junction temperature then computes the temperature.

Precautions and considerations for using thermocouples
Most measurement problems and errors with thermocouples are due to a lack of understanding
of how thermocouples work. Listed below are some of the common problems.

Connection problems: Many measurement errors are caused by unintentional thermocouple
junctions. Remember that any junction of two different metals will cause a junction. If you need
to increase the length of wires from your thermocouple, you must use the correct type of thermocouple
extension wire. Using the wrong wire will introduce a thermocouple junction. Any connectors used must
be made from the correct thermocouple material and correct polarity must be observed.

Lead Resistance: To minimize thermal shunting and improve response time, thermocouples are made
from thinner wire. However, thin wire will cause high resistance which can make it sensitive to
noise and can cause errors due to the input impedance of the measuring instrument. Using twisted
thermocouple wires will help to reduced the noises.

Thermocouple probes and assemblies
When ordering thermocouple probes, Remember that the thicker the sheath or insulated material the
slower the respond time.
