MTC6A
FITTINGS FOR THERMOELECTRIC TEMPERATURE SENSORS WITH A CERAMIC PROTECTIVE TUBE
The MTC6A series is designed for applications with operating temperatures up to 1600 °C. It has a single ceramic protective tube made of Alsint (C799) material, which is gas-tight. Its resistance to thermal shocks is, however, low. The lifetime of the thermocouple pair in sensors of this series is among the highest.
The measuring element is a precious metal thermocouple, most commonly of type S, R or B. The thermocouple’s output signal is a voltage whose dependence on temperature is defined by the ČSN EN 60584-1 ed. 2 standard. Thermocouples are not included in the ordering code (ordered separately).
The fitting consists of a head, a holding pipe, a protective ceramic tube and a capillary, in which one or two thermocouples can be installed. The head is fitted with a cable gland for connecting a compensation cable.
The sensor can be fitted with a temperature converter. A PR mounting flange can be used to secure the sensor at the point of measurement.
