What is the purpose of a thermocouple?
The fast thermocouple is a temperature sensor. It can be used for temperature measurement of molten metal. It is used for measuring the temperature of molten steel and high temperature molten metal.
It’s a disposable expendable thermocouple. Expendable thermocouples are easy to use and require no particular skill. They are available in various types to meet the specific requirements of different applications.
Expendable Thermocouple Tips
The expendable thermocouple tip is first inserted into a long lance fitted with a receptacle. The moment the thermocouple tip with a paper tube is properly connected to the lance, an automatic signal is generated on the temperature measurement control panel to confirm a proper connection.
FAQs About the Expendable Thermocouple
SEFU specializes in supplying expendable thermocouples based on perfective. We can supply you with fast thermocouples in various sizes and lengths. We can also supply you with multiple thermocouples with sleeves. Thermocouple tips can also be supplied to you separately.
Learn more about thermocouples.
The thermocouple is in the process of steel making and iron making. Expendable Thermocouples are temperature measurement products that can help to improve steel casting quality.
The working principle is based on the metal thermoelectric effect, making use of the temperature difference from both ends for the temperature measurement of molten steel and molten metal.
The thermocouple tip is immersed into the molten metal, so that the thermocouple tip comes in contact with liquid steel. The expendable tips are used for temperature measurement, whereas the liquid metal sampler enables the spectrographic analysis of the chemistry of steel, providing quick and representative samples of the molten metal in the required forms.
