Product Description

Description of KN / KP Alloy Thermocouple Bare Wire K-Type

THERMOCOUPLE WIRE

What is KN / KP Alloy Thermocouple Bare Wire K-Type?

K-Type Thermocouple WireKN / KP Alloy Thermocouple Bare Wire K-Type is used in a thermocouple from the sensing point to the cold junction compensation point (or reference point).Thermocouple wire or extension grade wire is recommended to be used to connect thermocouples to the sensing or control instrumentation. The conditions of measurement determine the type of thermocouple wire and insulation to be used. Temperature range, environment, insulation requirements, response, and service life should be considered.

KN / KP Alloy Thermocouple Bare Wire K-Type is used at temperatures up to 1260°C (2300°F). MICC thermocouple bare wire is supplied with bright or oxidized surface according to standard or special EMF requirements.Each individual lead is calibrated against platinum and the EMF values are shown on each coil or spool.

Calibration Type Characteristics of KN / KP Alloy Thermocouple Bare Wire K-Type

1. TYPE J (Iron vs Constantan)

TYPE J (Iron vs Constantan) is used in vacuum, oxidizing, inert or reducing atmospheres. Iron element oxidizes rapidly at
temperatures exceeding 538'C, and therefore heavier gauge wire is recommended for longer life at these temperatures.

2. TYPE K (CHROMEL vs ALUMEL)

TYPE K (CHROMEL vs ALUMEL) is used in oxidizing, inert or dry reducing atmospheres. Exposure to vacuum limited to short time periods. Must be protected from sulfurous and marginally oxidizing atmospheres. Reliable and accurate at high temperatures.

3. TYPE T (Copper vs Constantan)

TYPE T (Copper vs Constantan) is used or service in oxidizing, inert or reducing atmospheres or in vacuum. It is highly resistant to corrosion from atmospheric moisture and condensation and exhibits high stability at low temperatures. It is the only type with limits of error guaranteed for cryogenic temperatures.

4.TYPE E (CHROMEL vs Constantan)

TYPE E (CHROMEL vs Constantan) may be used in oxidizing, inert or dry reducing atmospheres, or for short periods of time under vacuum. Must be protected from sulfurous and marginally oxidizing atmospheres. Produces the highest EMF per degree o any standardized thermocouple.
