Book excerpt: Compacted ceramic insulated themocouple material consists of three parts as shown in Fig. 5.1. This type of thermocouple is in common use because it isolates the thermocouple wires from environments that may cause rapid deterioration and provides excellent high-temperature insulation for thermocouple wires. The sheath can be made of a metal compatible with the process in which it is being used and provides mechanical protection. The material is easy to use because it forms easily, retains the bent configuration, and is readily fabricated into finished thermocouple assemblies.

Book excerpt: When data were being gathered in 1961 for National Bureau of Standards Monograph 40 [3] on Thermocouple Materials, a section was included to cover ceramic packed thermocouple stock "because of the wide use and increasing popularity." New uses continue to be found for this unique hetrogeneous materials combination. Compacted ceramic insulated thermocouple material consists of three parts as shown in Fig. 21. The advantages of this configuration are: 1. It isolates the thermocouple wires from environments that may cause rapid deterioration. 2. It reduces long term calibration drift. 3. It lessens temperature versus wire size problems. 4. It provides an excellent high temperature insulation for thermocouple wires. 5. The sheath can be made of a metal compatible with the process in which it is being used and bears the brunt of the environmental effects. 6. It is easy to use: a. Forms easily and retains the bent configuration. b. The sheath can be welded without loss of insulation. c. Available in a wide variety of sizes and materials. d. Readily fabricated into finished thermocouple assemblies with minimum of technique and equipment. e. Useful at high pressures or high temperatures or both. 7. It is inexpensive as a finished thermocouple.

Book excerpt: A complete thermocouple temperature sensing assembly, in accordance with the present state of the art, consists of one or more of the following: A. Sensing Element Assembly--In its most basic form this assembly includes two dissimilar wires, supported or separated or both by electrical insulation and joined at one end to form a measuring junction. Such assemblies usually fall into one of three categories; (1) those formed from wires having nonceramic insulation, (2) those with hard-fired ceramic insulators, and (3) those made from sheathed, compacted ceramic-insulated wires. This chapter will deal only with the first two. See Chapter 5 for complete details on the latter.

Such assemblies usually fall into one of three categories; those formed from wires have nonceramic insulation, those with hard-fired ceramic insulators, and those made from sheathed, compacted ceramic-insulated wires. B. Protection tube--ceramic and metal protection tubes, sometimes referred to as thermowells, serve the purpose of protecting the sensing element assembly from the deleterious effects of corrosive or oxidizing or reducing atmospheres. In some cases, two concentrically arranged protection tubes may be used. The one closest to the sensing element assembly is designated the primary protection tube, while the outer tube is termed the secondary protection tube. Combinations such as an aluminum oxide primary tube and silicon carbide secondary tube often are used to obtain the beneficial characteristics of the combination, such as resistance to cutting flame action, and ability to resist thermal shock. C. Connector--sensing element assembly wire terminations are made to either (a) Terminals (b) Connection head 1. General purpose type 2. Screw cover type 3. Open type (c) Plug and jack quick-disconnect (d) Military standard (MS) type of connector D. Miscellaneous hardware such as (a) Pipe nipple or adapter to join the protection tube to the head (b) Thermocouple gland--used primarily with sheathed, compacted ceramic-insulated thermocouple assemblies to serve the dual function of mounting and sealing-off pressure in the mounting hole (see Section 5).

Book excerpt: Over one in five thermometers currently in use are out of calibration. This self-teaching text seeks to redress this situation by providing practical guidance on temperature measurement and calibration. Focusing upon recognised measurement procedures and international standards, the authors detail the operating and measurement principles for the four most common thermometers: platinum resistance, liquid-in-glass, thermocouples, and radiation thermometers. Features include the latest temperature information including ITS-90 reference tables for thermocouples and platinum resistance thermometers; detailed coverage of traceability; how to make traceable measurements and how to design, carry-out and report calibrations; identification of the main contributing uncertainties for a range of thermometers; extensive advice on accuracy, with sections devoted to the recognition and treatment of errors; technical information to complement the managerial guidelines of the ISO 9000 series QA systems. The systematic approach will assist those seeking accreditation along the lines of ISO Guide 25; and illustrative examples, detailed references and a full bibliography.
