At TE Wire & Cable, we understand the demands of high-temperature metallurgy applications in the nickel alloy, titanium, and aluminum industry. High temperature thermocouple wire is a key component in temperature monitoring and measurement. At TE Wire, we don’t care how much you turn up the heat because we know how to handle the intense temperatures in metallurgy applications. Using our in-plant ISO17025 accredited calibration lab, we develop T/C wire and cable products that deliver exceptional performance and help our customers meet global quality standards. Our thermocouple wire and thermocouple extension cable solutions are ideal for the following metallurgy applications: component testing, heat treatment, furnace surveys and metals production.

To twist or not to twist that is the question!

Recently, I received a number of questions regarding junctions. Most of the questions are related to the effect of twisted vs. parallel junctions on measurement and performance long term.  To answer this question, I approached my friend and colleague at CCPI, Trevor Ford.

 

Below are some of the questions he answered in his reply. I hope they help you on your next project or simply answer some of the basic questions you might have while working with thermocouples.

 

Trevor, using your vast thermocouple sensing expertise, would you be able to provide some pros and cons of twisted (weld/no weld)/parallel welded exposed junctions?
