What Are Common Applications for Thermocouples?

What Are Common Applications for Thermocouples?

Thermocouples are the most widely used temperature sensors on the planet due to their combination of wide temperature capabilities, ruggedness, and low cost. Thermocouples are used in applications that range from home appliances to industrial processes, to electric power generation, to furnace monitoring and control, to food and beverage processing, to automotive sensors, to aircraft engines, to rockets, satellites and spacecraft.

When it comes to high temperatures, small size, fast response, high vibration or shock, most times you will find thermocouples providing the temperature measurements.


IP vs. NEMA / Weatherproof Enclosure Ratings

IP vs. NEMA / Weatherproof Enclosure Ratings

Understanding the necessary requirements for your product’s enclosure ratings is important, particularly when looking to gain the optimum life from your product while avoiding any safety concerns. Included below is a straight forward easy to understand overview of enclosure ratings, including IP ratings, NEMA types and the difference between the two.

We will be looking at these two common standards for industrial enclosures, what they equate to, some alternatives, and how to best choose the right one for your application...
