The Basics of Temperature Measurement using Thermocouples 3 Part Whitepaper


Whilst many of the people who read this blog are familiar with the thermocouple, we know that choosing the right type (J, K, T, etc) is not that simple. 


You must take multiple elements into consideration - the sensor materials, the ambient temperature range, the sensor's sensitivity, and its reaction with the measurement environment. whilst also being aware of the inherent limitations of the thermocouple and potential error sources. 



These white papers will help you to make an informed selection between sensor types and avoid potential problems in your application. 



Part 1/3 The Basics of Temperature Measurement Using Thermocouples- 
explores the thermocouple, their construction, and how they operate.



Part 2/3 The Basics of Temperature Measurement Using RTDs
 Part 2 of this series will take a close look  at RTDs, its construction, and how it operates. 



Part 3/3 A Comparison of Thermocouple and RTD Temperature Sensors
 will summarise and compare some common aspects of both sensors to help you choose between the two in your quest to find the best sensor for your particular industrial application.
