FEATURES

  • Low Millisecond response time to transient temperature change.
  • Thermocouple Junction renewable by filing or sanding the probe tip, thus the surface can ear away and the temperatures will continue to be measured - Brake lining, ablative surfaces, char layers, etc.
  • Thermocouple housing material can be that of the test item, thereby matching the thermal properties of the test item, i.e.: Copper, phenolic, rubber, wood, graphite.
  • "Two-dimensional" thermal junction for accurate positioning of the sensing tip
  • Temperature range to 4200°F.
  • Pressure range to 10,000 PSI
  • Probe diameters 1/8" diameter and up.
  • Probe housing material fabricated from any machineable material.
  • Sensing tip can be machined to match any desired shape.
  • Available in all standard thermocouple calibrations, J, K, E, T, S, R, B, C, D, G, N

Surface Temperature Measurements
Used as a surface Thermocouple, the NANMAC Pencil Probe thermocouple will measure the precise temperature of the hot surface without obstructing the flow pattern. The probe can be made of any metal thus matching the properties of the test wall and reducing thermal conductivity errors to a minimum. As the surface of the wall (if subjected to erosion) wears away, the probe will continuously measure the surface temperature even while the probe itself wears away.

In-Wall Temperature
Used as an in-wall temperature measuring probe, the NANMAC Pencil Probe Thermocouple can be positioned to an accuracy of better than ± .001 inches. This feature, together with the fast response times of this probe, make it an ideal in-wall Thermocouple,

Immersion Temperature
Under certain applications the Pencil Probe Thermocouple can be used for immersion applications such as within the stream of flowing plastic or high velocity gases. It is however recommended that NANMAC engineers be consulted for the thermocouple design best suited for immersion.
