MODEL TMPC - HIGH TEMPERATURE THERMOCOUPLE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The model TMPC thermocouple is double-protected with abrasion resistant
Inconel overbraid with high temperature ceramic fiber insulation. A temperature
rating of up to 980 ºC (1796 ºF) continuous service and 1090 ºC (1994 ºF) shortterm service makes these probes ideal for many high temperature measurement
applications. Ideal applications include profiling ovens and furnaces.

MODEL TMPU - UTILITY THERMOCOUPLES
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Utility thermocouple probes are basic products for temperature measurement.
They are typically connected to a hand held thermometer. The unit features a
rugged handle that is permanently molded to a probe sheath. A retractable cable
is connected with strain relief to the handle end, and termination is provided by
a miniature male connector.
