High Temperature Inconel Overbraided Silica Fiber Insulated Thermocouples

Unique OMEGA™ family of high temperature types J, K, E or N thermocouples are double-protected with abrasion-resistant Inconel overbraid with high temperature ceramic fiber insulation. A temperature rating of 980°C (1800°F)continuous service and 1090°C (2000°F) short-term service makes these products ideal for many high temperature measurement applications. They are unexcelled for profiling ovens and furnaces. The 20-gage solid conductor thermocouple wires are insulated with braided Nextel® ceramic Over the ceramic fiber is a rugged overbraid of Inconel 600® –a tough, high-temperature, high nickel content alloy. Five convenient styles are available in 3 ft. and 10 ft. lengths for high temperature measurement applications.

Probe Style

Style 1		A grounded junction thermocouple with the Inconel overbraid welded to form a smooth rounded tip for all general purpose applications.
Style 2		A general purpose, bead welded, exposed junction thermocouple.
Style 3		An exposed junction, bead welded junction thermocouple with an Inconel collar to clamp the probe to a surface, or to secure it into a hole or any fabrication.
Style 4		Grounded junction. It can be bolted to a surface, or the Inconel eye can hook the thermocouple to a conveyor flight. Ungrounded junction versions are available. Contact sales for more information.
Style 5		Has an Inconel air hood to protect the beaded wire exposed junction. This design can be clamped to a surface, hooked to a conveyor flight, or bolted to a surface by using the through hole at the open end of the hood.
