A Thermocouple is a terrific way to measure temperature. The effects of temperature change on dissimilar metals produces a measurable voltage. But to make that measurement you need an amplifier ...

Source: Southern Company As expected, the response was faster for the ½ inch thermocouple than the other two (1/4 inch and 3/8 inch), which confirms the need to match thermocouple diameter to ...

Q: My gas log fireplace worked just fine last winter, but I couldn’t light the pilot light this fall. There’s no brand name on the log, so I don’t know where or who to call for instructions. Can you ...

In an extreme heat environment, such as during the sintering of powdered metals, in solid waste incinerators, or in oil or gas fired-furnaces, thermocouple probes need to be able to withstand extreme ...

The thermocouple is a popular sensor for industrial temperature measurement because it's accurate, cost-effective, widely available, and suitable for a wide range of temperatures. It consists of two ...

Many of us electronics hacker types tend to have at least the same common equipment on our benches, namely a multimeter, an oscilloscope, some sort of adjustable power supply, and maybe a logic ...

Microchip Technology has claimed the industry’s first single-chip, four-channel I 2 C thermocouple conditioning IC to deliver up to ±1.5°C accuracy with the introduction of the MCP9604 integrated ...

Microchip has created a four-channel thermocouple measurement IC with ±1.5°C accuracy. “MCP9604 delivers accuracy at four thermocouple locations by using higher-order NIST ITS-90 equations rather than ...

Engineering design is often largely about the tradeoffs among the approaches to solving various challenges while meeting overall project objectives. These tradeoffs may be global such as balancing ...

If you need a wireless device to measure and monitor temperature from thermocouple sensors, CAS DataLoggers has the solution with the new WF-TC WiFi thermocouple data logger from Accsense VersaLog.
