Type T Thermocouples

T Type Thermocouples provide one of most accurate and durable temperature measurement solutions from the extreme cold Cryogenics range of - 450°F ( -270°C) (helium gas turns to liquid) to 700°F (370°C) (melting point beyond most thermoplastics)

  • Type T can be Highly Accurate and stable especially in the temperature range of -380°F to 400°F (–229°C to 200°C)
    • SLE or Special Limits of Error accuracy ( +/- 0.5°C or 0.4%) can be achieved with a carefully matched pair of Copper (positive) and Constantan (negative) thermocouple alloys.
    • Standard accuracy is  +/- 1.0C or +/- .75% whichever is greater.
      • Reduced accuracy will occur with temperatures below -380°F (-200°C)
  • Color Codes -ANSI (American National Standard Institute) Blue positive, Red negative with solid Blue or Blue trace overall with wire and connectors. 
    • IEC International Electrotechnical Commission) Brown positive, White negative and Brown overall on wire and connectors
  • The Filter Search tool on the Left or the Clickable product categories below will aid in your selection of the Type T thermocouple products
    • Thermocouple Probes with a stainless steel or PFA protected metal sheath for immersion in liquids, gases, air and other industrial applications.
    • Beaded Thermocouples designs with fine diameter PFA and Fiberglass insulated lead wire with high flexibility and very fast response time.
    • Thermocouple Connectors include miniature, standard size, panel mounted, circuit board and other configurations available in thermoplastics, thermosets and ceramics.
    • Thermocouple Wire with diameter and insulations from fine diameter 40 gage (.003") to rugged 20 Gage (.032") with Plastic Fluoropolymers to higher temperature Fiberglass.
    • Industry applications - cryogenic to relatively lower temperature testing in laboratory and overall research or product development for medical, aerospace and electronics including vacuum environment testing.
      • Type T thermocouples provide a good temperature range for food processing although recently this thermocouple is being displaced in the food and beverage industry with RTD temperature sensors.
