E Type Thermocouple

Thermocouples work as a temperature sensors for control and measurement. They are also used for converting a temperature gradient into electricity. There are two legs made of two different metals wires. These two legs/wires are bonded through welding, and at one end. This joint may be termed as a junction. This junction is the point where temperature finally gets read. Once you have measured something and there is a slight change, you will yourself feel change of voltage.

Different characteristics are possessed by different types of Thermocouples. Here we will discuss the features and limitations of E Type Thermocouple. Everyone knows that if you are making any thermocouple product then heating element is very necessary, as I recommend to use electric heatersin such cases if want proper heat on the same time.

E Type Thermocouple :

E Type Thermocouple has potent to catch the signals with better and higher accuracy.

Range of E Type Thermocouple :

Extension wire                          –         32°F to 392°F which is equal to 0°C to 200°C

Thermocouple grade wire      –       -454°F to 1600°F which is equal to -270°C to 870°C

Accuracy (which will be greater) :

Special limits of error                                            –           +/-1.0°C or 0.4%

Standard                                                                –           +/- 1.7°C or +/- 0.5 %

Limitations :

The sensitivity of thermocouple is comparatively small as compared to other types. This is so based on the reading of tens of microvolsts which are measured in ‘Celsius’. For better and clearer reading, you would need an offset amplifier, to read usable readings. You will surely need circuits or tables to measure things in better and efficient way. They have lower thermal mass. It may not read temperatures beyond 2300°C.

The wires are well insulated and work efficiently. They are not insulated at the junction. If additional contacts are made or other objects are brought in between, it may affect the reading it finally gives.

Benefits and Uses:

Though there are multiple limitations with E-type thermocouple, yet they are worth use. The most commonly used sources, where such thermocouples are installed are:-

• Ovens
• Water Heaters
• Test equipments
• Many other industrial uses

If want to give the order in bulk, so direct contact to the thermocouple manufacturers.

Conclusion :

While thinking of investing on thermocouples, for commercial uses, be easy as they are inexpensive and are interchangeable. They come with standard connectors. They are capacitated to measure wide temperature ranges. They are indeed very different than the other devices, used for measuring temperatures.  They need not have an external or additional stimulant. Yes, temperatures may not be read accurately and readings are indeed compromised. But this limitation is based on the difference of one degree Celsius only.

In spite of too much of criticism, thermocouple and its variants are still used. Apart from this, If you have any query regarding product, don’t feel shy to contact us in such cases.
