Description
Magnetic Surface Thermocouple is a reliable temperature measurement sensor designed for measuring the surface temperature of ferrous metal components, pipes, tanks, vessels, molds, dies, and other metallic surfaces. The thermocouple features a magnetic mounting arrangement that allows quick and easy installation without drilling, welding, or permanent modification of the equipment.
The magnetic surface thermocouple provides direct contact with the metal surface for efficient temperature sensing and is suitable for applications where temporary or repositionable temperature measurement is required. Its compact design, easy installation, and industrial construction make it suitable for process monitoring, maintenance, testing, and industrial temperature measurement applications.
It can be supplied in different thermocouple types, temperature ranges, cable lengths, and construction options according to application requirements.
