FAQs of Expendable Thermocouple:
Q: How do I select the suitable immersion length for my application?
A: Choose the immersion length based on the depth and size of the molten metal bath you intend to measure, ensuring accurate temperature readings. Standard lengths range from 300mm to 1800mm, but customization is available to fit your specific equipment or process requirements.
Q: What types of thermocouple elements are available in this product?
A: This expendable thermocouple offers Type S (Platinum Rhodium), Type B, and Type R thermocouple elements. Each type provides reliable high-temperature measurements, making the device ideal for various metallurgical operations.
Q: When should the thermocouple be replaced?
A: As a single-use, expendable device, the thermocouple should be replaced after each measurement cycle. Its design ensures precision and reliability during one-time use, minimizing the risk of contamination or incorrect readings from repeated usage.
Q: Where can this thermocouple be applied?
A: It is commonly used in steel foundries, iron casting, ferrous and non-ferrous metallurgical processes, and any environment requiring molten metal temperature measurement up to 1800C.
Q: What is the correct process for using the expendable thermocouple?
A: Insert the thermocouple probe into the molten metal bath, ensuring full submersion to the required depth. Wait for the rapid ( 5 seconds) temperature response, record the reading, and dispose of the probe safely after use.
Q: What are the benefits of using this thermocouple in metal processing industries?
A: The product delivers fast, reliable, and high-accuracy temperature measurement without requiring external power. Its disposable design facilitates contamination-free readings and minimal maintenance, thereby optimizing production efficiency and safety in demanding environments.
Q: How should the thermocouples be stored for maximum shelf life?
A: Store the thermocouples in a dry and dust-free environment to preserve performance. Under proper conditions, shelf life ranges from 12 to 18 months, ensuring readiness for critical temperature measurement tasks.
