Thermocouple: A thermocouple is another commonly used temperature sensor. Its operating principle is based on the thermoelectric effect between two different metal conductor wires. The output voltage or temperature value of a thermocouple depends on the combination of its metal materials. Therefore, there are many different models to choose from. Thermocouples have a fast response time and are suitable for high-temperature and extreme-environment applications, such as industrial furnace blowers and automotive engine monitoring. Temperature sensing wires (temperature sensing rods) are typically made by encapsulating PT100 RTD or thermocouple sensors inside a protective sheath, so they can be positioned at the location where measurement is needed. Temperature gauges use temperature sensing elements to collect temperature data and convert it into readable digital or graphical displays, enabling users to monitor and record temperature changes. These sensors and thermometers are widely used across various industries, including food processing, chemical industry, medical applications, and environmental monitoring. Temperature sensor PT100 PT1000, RTD thermocouple temperature sensing wire temperature sensing rod Quick tips for selecting a temperature sensing rod: A temperature thermocouple is a type of sensor; PT100 is a type of RTD and is another type of sensor. It is more accurate than a Type K thermocouple, but it is also more expensive—making it the first choice for temperature measurement where high accuracy is required. However, you should choose between PT100, PT1000, or general thermocouples of K, J, T, E, R, S, N types based on your current instruments (temperature sensor specifications), or requirements such as accuracy, temperature range, response time, or specific matching and design needs.
