Thermocouples

Iron-Constantan Thermocouples (Type J)

Iron-constantan thermocouples are low cost devices used to measure temperatures to 800 degrees C. These iron-constantan thermocouples are often referred to as J thermocouples and are the standard thermocouples used in gas chromatographs, mass spectrometers, and other laboratory and industrial equipment. The smaller the diameter of the thermocouple wires the faster the response time but the more limited the temperature range and structural strength of the thermocouple. All thermocouples are supplied with 12 inch leads. Two styles are available, i.e. bare wire thermocouples and ceramic insulated thermocouples. The bare wire style contain no insulation of any kind on the bare thermocouple wires. The insulated style contains a 2 hole by 6 inch length of ceramic insulating tube. This insulates the thermocouple leads and prevents their shorting out. If desired, the ceramic tubes can be cut or broken to shorter lengths.

Wire diameter	Response Time
0.005 inch	1 sec.
0.010 inch	5 sec.
0.020 inch	20 sec.
0.032 inch	40 sec.

In addition to the iron-constantan thermocouples, S.I.S. can supply other types and configurations of thermocouples. Call or write with your requirements. 

S.I.S. has made a variety of different styles and types of thermocouples.
