Base Metal Thermocouples
Learn more about our Base Metal Thermocouples
UK Manufactured Base Metal Thermocouples
We manufacture and design base metal thermocouple assemblies. Base metal thermocouples are made from conductors containing nickel alloys and depending on thermocouple type are suited for measuring temperatures between -270 to +1300°C. They are a rugged design, suited for tough industrial use.

Base Metal Designs
The base metal thermocouple junction will need contamination protection from the process it is measuring. Each thermocouple should have a protection sheath best suited to its application.
Base Metal Thermocouple Types
There are five types of base metal thermocouple all made from nickel alloys with slightly different characteristics and specifications.
Special Options
All our base metal thermocouples are custom made, as such we are able to tailor your sensors exactly to your requirements. There are many options available including:
Special materials
Materials which would work best in your process are available on request.
Pressure testing/tight
Pressure testing can be conducted and pressure tight designs are available.
Special coatings
Wear and chemical resistant coatings can be applied to sensors e.g. ACT™.
Lining sheaths
Ceramic lining sheaths can be added to increase heat resistance.
Calibration
Full UKAS or UKAS traceable calibration is available. AMS 2750 F to full or traceable calibration is available.
Process Fittings
Flange or compression fittings can be added such as an adjustable or welded flange on shank
Material Certificates
Material certificates are available on request.
Duplex & Triplex
Thermocouples can be supply duplex or triplex instead of simplex.
Cabling
High temperature compensating cable can be supplied fitted to sensor.
Reduced tip options
Reduced hot junction for fast response or cost saving.
