POSITION

Cu-CuNi thermocouple wire(Type-T)

Cu-CuNi thermocouple (type T) is also named Cu- Constantan thermocouple. The positive leg Cu(TP) is made by pure Copper, and the main chemical composition of negative leg Constantan (TN) is Cu: Nix 55%: 45%. Although EN, TN, JN are all called Constantan, TN and EN don't give the same EMF output
  • Detailed Description

Cu-CuNi thermocouple (type T) is also named Cu- Constantan thermocouple. The positive leg Cu(TP) is made by pure Copper, and the main chemical composition of negative leg Constantan (TN) is Cu: Nix 55%: 45%. Although EN, TN, JN are all called Constantan, TN and EN don't give the same EMF output curve as JN. EN and TN are able to interchange but they are not interchangeable with IN. The operating temperature range of type T thermocouple is -200~350℃, due to the low resistance of oxidation that Copper has, it is not advisable to go beyond that range.
