The MTC12U series consists of cable temperature sensors in an angled design, with a spring providing pressure against the measured surface. The angled design is advantageous in applications with limited installation space. All basic sensor parameters are determined by the type of lead used.
The measuring element is a base metal thermocouple of type J, K, L or N. The thermocouple’s output signal is a voltage whose dependence on temperature is defined by the ČSN EN 60584-1 ed. 2 standard, or by DIN 43 710 for the type L thermocouple.
The sensor consists of thermocouple lead, a protective tube, a bayonet cap and a spring, and is terminated with stripped ends or a connector.
