Thermocouples with Ceramic Fiber Insulation with Inconel Overbraid to Measure Temperatures up to 1090 °C

The unique OMEGA® family of high temperature types J, K, E or N thermocouples are double-protected with high temperature ceramic fiber insulation with abrasion-resistant Inconel overbraid. A temperature rating of 1090 °C short-term service and 980 °C continuous service makes these thermocouples suitable for many high temperature measurement applications.

They are unexcelled for profiling furnaces and ovens. The solid conductor thermocouple wires with a diameter of 0.8 mm are insulated with braided ceramic fiber. Over the fiber is a strong overbraid of Inconel 600®, which is a rugged, high temperature, high nickel content alloy. Five convenient styles are available in 1 m and 3 m lengths for high temperature measurement applications.

  • Flexible, high temperature, abrasion resistant
  • J, K, E or N thermocouple calibrations
  • Withstand temperatures up to 1090 °C
  • Thermocouples with Inconel overbraid with ceramic fiber insulation
  • Five convenient styles for easy application
  • Unparalleled for profiling ovens and furnaces
