Features of NS series
- Type
K thermocouple
Two types are available: The general type and the high-temperature resistant type.
Regarding the size of the thin-film part, two types are also available: The standard type and the miniature type.
T thermocouple
Only the general type is available.
Regarding the size of the thin-film part, only the miniature type is available. - The three features of the thin-film surface thermocouple, the insulation of which is ultrathin film, are as follows:
1. More accurate and stable temperature measurement
2. Stress-free and prompt thermal responsiveness
3. A hot junction with a wide contact area - Upper temperature limit
General type: Temperatures up to 200℃ can be measured.
High-temperature resistant type: Temperatures up to 300℃ can be measured since this type uses adhesive-free polyimide film as the insulation for the hot junction. (Please note that the upper temperature limit of the lead wire is 260℃.) Minimal outgases are generated. - The hot junction is one terminal of a duplex insulated thermocouple wire which is an optimal length for use. Therefore, there is no need to prepare another lead wire.
- Duplex insulated thermocouple wire insulated with fluorine resin (PFA), is resistant to heat up to 260℃ and excels in chemical resistance. Furthermore, a twist pair configuration reduces the noise caused by electromagnetic induction.
- In response to customers’ requirements, we can also offer thin-film surface thermocouples with one special terminal, such as a bare terminal, a terminal with a thermocouple connector (our original product “TWINTOR”), and a Y terminal. We can also offer thin-film surface thermocouples, such as one with an uninsulated hot junction.
We can provide cut samples of products.
For cut samples, please contact Matsui, Sales Department.
