Description
Thermocouples without thermowell are particularly suitable for those applications in which the metal sensor tip is mounted directly into bored holes (e.g. in machine components) or directly into the process for any application with no chemically aggressive media or abrasion.
For mounting into a thermowell, a spring-loaded compression fitting should be provided, since only this can press the measuring tip into the bottom of the thermowell. Otherwise a � potentially critical � force could be exerted on the measuring tip. Mounting is usually made directly into the process. Fastening elements such as threaded fittings, union nuts, etc. can also be used.

The flexible part of the probe is a mineral-insulated cable (sheathed cable). It consists of a stainless steel outer sheath, which contains the insulated internal leads, embedded within a high-density ceramic compound and is also suitable for use at higher temperatures.
Optionally we can fit analogue or digital transmitters from the WIKA range into the connection head of the TC10-H.
Special features
- Sensor ranges from -40 ... +1,200 °C [-40 ... + 2,192 °F]
- For insertion, screw-in with optional process connection
- Connection head form B or JS
- Explosion-protected versions are available for many approval types (see data sheet page 2)
