Premium T-Type Thermocouple Extension Wire (Cu-CuNi) for Precision Laboratory Applications

T-Type thermocouples, made of Copper (Cu) for the positive leg and Copper-Nickel (CuNi) for the negative leg, are widely recognized for their accuracy and stability, especially in low-temperature environments. T-Type thermocouple extension wires are commonly used in laboratory settings, where precision temperature measurement is critical for experiments and research. The combination of Copper and Copper-Nickel alloys in T-Type extension wire ensures reliable and accurate temperature readings for scientific and industrial applications.

In this article, we will explore the material characteristics, applications, and user needs that make the T-Type thermocouple extension wire a preferred choice for precision laboratory temperature monitoring.

Material Composition and Characteristics

T-Type thermocouple extension wire is made from Copper (Cu) for the positive leg and Copper-Nickel (CuNi) for the negative leg. These materials were selected for their high thermoelectric efficiency, stability, and suitability for low-temperature applications.

• Copper (Cu): The positive leg of the T-Type extension wire is made from copper, which is known for its excellent electrical conductivity and high sensitivity to temperature changes. Copper ensures quick response to temperature variations, making it ideal for laboratory precision applications.
• Copper-Nickel (CuNi): The negative leg is made from Copper-Nickel alloy, which offers enhanced resistance to corrosion and oxidation, ensuring stable performance over time. The combination of these two materials creates a balanced thermoelectric response, resulting in highly accurate measurements.

Key Features

• Low-Temperature Range: T-Type thermocouple extension wire is optimized for precise temperature measurements in low-temperature environments, with a range from -200°C to 350°C (-328°F to 662°F).
• High Accuracy: The wire provides excellent accuracy in temperature sensing, which is essential for research and laboratory experiments where even the slightest temperature variation can affect results.
• Corrosion Resistance: Copper-Nickel alloy provides high resistance to corrosion and oxidation, ensuring that the extension wire maintains its performance and accuracy over time, even in environments where exposure to moisture or chemicals is possible.
• Flexibility: T-Type thermocouple extension wire is flexible, which makes it easy to install and use in laboratory settings. This flexibility is important in applications where the extension wire may need to be routed through complex or confined spaces.
• Stability: The wire offers minimal drift over time, ensuring long-term stable performance, which is essential for scientific research that demands consistent and reliable temperature readings.
