2. Design and function
2.1 Description
The model TC47 thermocouples are used for temperature measurement in the range from
0 … 400 °C [32 … 752 °F]. They are particularly suitable for those applications in which the
metal probe tip is mounted directly into bored holes, e.g. in machine components or directly
into the process, for any application without chemically aggressive media or abrasion.
The thermocouple is designed as a tube and wire construction. This consists of a metal
probe tip, in which the thermocouple cable is inserted and fixed, or a metal fixing element
onto which the thermocouple cable is attached.
Unless otherwise specified, the measuring points will be delivered isolated from the probe
tip (ungrounded).
For specific applications, e.g. surface temperature measurements, the measuring points of
the thermocouples can be delivered welded to the probe tip.
2.2 Scope of delivery
Cross-check scope of delivery with delivery note.
