Cut-Away view of Right Angle thermocouple element -
The "Right Angle" Thermocouple features thermal elements which consist of thin thermocouple alloy ribbons welded together at the sensing tip. These ribbon elements are brought out from opposing sides of the probe along the interface of a high temperature - thermally isolating rod and cone assembly. The ribbons in the vicinity of the thermal junction are parallel to the plane of heat source thus both the thermal junction and the ribbons are heated simultaneously and conduction errors are minimized. The ribbon elements, due to their mass to surface-area relationship,
provide fast response times to equilibrium temperatures since
maximum surface contact area is offered to the heat source. Detailed
