In the vast world of thermometers, there is a high temperature measurement device used in a multitude of activity sectors; Whether it's food, industry or home automation (yes yes), the Thermocouple thermometer is present when it is necessary to Control and measure temperatures. Two metals of different natures make up thermocouples and are connected by two junctions. But then, What is a thermocouple thermometer for? How does it work? And in which areas do professionals use it? Just as many questions that, thanks to our Temperature experts, will not remain unanswered.
What is a Thermocouple thermometer ?
A Thermocouple thermometer, also called Thermoelectric torque, is a temperature sensor. It is useful in different fields, in order to carry out Ambient temperature measurements, exterior or interior, of a room or a surface. The particularity of this instrument lies in its ability to measure temperatures on Very wide measurement beaches (up to 1,800 degrees Celsius). The specificity of thermocouples makes them very useful in sectors requiring heating materials to very high temperature or keep products at very low temperature, in industrial processes Or scientists For example.
How does a Thermocouple thermometer ?
THE Thermocouple thermometer has a Stainless temperature probe (mostly) on two terminals and generates a potential difference (also called FME) in millivolts. His probe is therefore made up ofAn alloy of two different metals connected by a weld at the end. When subjected to a certain temperature, metals cause a tension in thousands which is analyzed, measured and transmitted by a regulator or any other regulation process. Then, the data is transformed into a result directly transmitted by a connector and displayed in temperature on the LCD screen of this Digital thermometer, and you will be notified by a sound signal.
Note 📝All the Professional thermometers require a calibration and a calibration regular in order to function properly, more when the temperature beaches to be measured are wide.
THE Thermocouple thermometer for them ovens
Different trades require the use of an oven and thereforeA thermocouple for oven In order to perform them temperature controls.
In France, when we think "oven", we immediately think of the gastronomy. In large restaurants, canteens, bakeries or even at home, baking is essential. To measure perfectly the temperature of a professional oven, it is necessary to always have on hand a Thermocouple thermometer. This is the ideal tool for perfectly cook your bread, your pizzas or your confectionery!
Less visible to the general public but just as important: the industrial ovens. They make it possible to obtain a intense heat, thanks to thermal or electric energy. The automotive industry, glassware or metal industry uses this equipment. THE temperature standards must be strictly respected. It is therefore essential to equip yourself with a High definition measurement instrument like the Thermocouple thermometer.
THE Thermocouple thermometer for them refrigerators
And if, as Merlin would say: If for a short there is a long, for each square there is a round, for each high temperature There is a low temperature. Who says Four, says refrigerator.
In large kitchens, food production factories, or scientific laboratories, professionals use refrigerators and therefore Thermocouples for refrigerator. For reasons of Hygiene and safety standards, it is imperative to keep and transport products (fish, ice cream, vaccines, etc.) in cold rooms Or Refrigerated trucks. This guarantees their quality. It is therefore necessary to perpetually control the temperature conservation or transport with a Professional thermometer adapted.
And it’s that everything’s round!
