APPLIED SENSOR TECHNOLOGIES' new thermocouple temperature sensors are designed to survive longer in extreme environments and effectively measure temperatures in excess of 1,700°C. Manufactured from platinum wire, they are available in R, S, and B calibrations. Their construction includes high-purity, alumina-bead spacers instead of mullite, preventing contamination of the platinum by the mullite above 650°C. The sensor is then protected in the alumina protection tube, available in various lengths, diameters, and process connections. www.appliedsensorstech.com
