High-Temperature Thermocouple R, S, And B Assemblies. Thermocouples Are Made From Conductors Containing Platinum And Rhodium Alloys And Are Suited For Measuring High Temperatures Up To 1700°C.
High-Temperature Thermocouple (B-Type) Technical Details
Type B Has A Very High-Temperature Thermocouple. For Short Periods It Can Be Used To Measure Temperatures Up To 1850°C, With Up To 1700°C Being Measured Under Continuous Operation. One Quirk Of Type B Thermocouples Is That Its Output Doesn’t Change Between 0 And 42°C Meaning That It Is Unsuitable For Measuring Temperatures Near This Range. We Recommend Type B Thermocouples Are Only Used For Measuring Above 200°C.
