Thermocouples
MgO Insulation ThermocouplesMgO-insulated thermocouples are made of two or more wires, inside a highly compacted MgO insulation powder.Various materials can be used for the external metallic body, according to the specific working conditions. MgO-insulated thermocouples are manufactured and tested according to ASTM E608, and comply to ANSI MC 96.1 orDIN 43710 standards.
The thermocouple leads are inserted in ceramic insulators, that are housed, together with alumina powder, inprotective bodies to ANSI/DIN specifications. The main application of these temperature gauges is when novibrations, mechanical stresses or pressure loads are applied.
Conventional Insulation Thermocouples
Thermocouple Junction TypesThere are 3 types of wire junction in thermocouples. The type shall be chosen according to the characteristics of theapplication. The below comparison chart might help.
E G U
Type Response Time In Corrosive Environments With Vibrations Other Features
EXPOSED JUNCTION Very short Not good Not good Shall be handled carefully to avoid
damage to the junction.
Very good Very good whenever parasitic emf could affect accurate measurement.
GROUNDED JUNCTION Short Good Not good
Temperature probes are basically two wires with particular thermoelectric features, electrically insulated from eachother and from the external protection body. This type of temperature gauge is very reliable and quickly responding.Depending on their various construction features, they are individually optimized to fully fit in a great number ofindustrial applications. The most significant input data needed to design a temperature probe are operativetemperature range and working conditions.
Very good with high pressures (up to 3500 Kg/cm², or 350 MPa).
UNGROUNDED JUNCTION Longer Very good

Thermocouple TypesThermocouples are supplied in various types, depending on the materials of wires, according to ANSI MC96.1, DIN43710 or other regulations. The different types have different physical and electrical characteristics, making each ofthem fit for a specific type of application. Types are defined by a letter. While ordering a thermocouple, the standardof reference (typically ANSI, DIN or IEC) shall be specified.

Conventional insulation thermoresistances are manufactured to IEC or DIN specifications, consisting in a platinumor nickel wire coiled on a ceramic or glass insulating core.
N Nicrosil - Nisil -270°C / +400°C (1) 0°C / +1300°C (2) ---
The number of wires can increase accuracy in measurement.
Housing bodies are in Nickel or AISI 304 stainless steel, though AISI 310, AISI 316 or PVC-enamelled bodies arealso available for highly corrosive environments.
Conventional Insulation Thermoresistances
Platinum-wired thermoresistances have a highly linear characteristic, which makes them fit in the temperature range-220°C to 850°C. Less precise thermoresistances are made of Nickel. Their resistance can drift in time, theircharacteristic is less linear and range is limited to: -60°C to +180°C.
