Ceramic Protection Tube Thermocouple
Ceramic Protection Tubes
High temperature to protect platinum or base metal thermocouples.
Mullite Protection Tubes:
Maximum temperature range 3200°F, Impervious to gasses at high temperature. Good shock and chemical resistance
Alumina Protection Tubes:
Maximum temperature range 3400°F, Fair shock resistance, preheating recommended
Resists chemicals, will not contaminate platinum
Silicon Carbide Protection Tube:
Maximum temperature range 3000°F excellent thermal conductivity, responds quickly to temperature change. Alternative to cast iron tubes, eliminating iron contamination. Special surface treatment assures maximum resistance to metal penetration into the contained thermocouple
Available with or without collars
