Meascom stocks popular, cost effective, reliable type J and type K thermocouple and Pt100 RTD temperature probes for industrial temperature measurement. We also stock non-isolated and isolated temperature transmitters with and without HART protocol. Shop here
- Thermowells can be supplied with the ordered probes. The standard stocked thermowells have process connection and probe connection of 1/2″BSP but other connection fittings sizes are available.
- Probes are fitted with terminal blocks when no transmitters are installed. When 4-20mA outputs are required, the blocks are removed and hockey puck style transmitters are installed.
- Thermocouple Probes:
- Lengths from 50mm to 600mm.
- Type J and Type K are generally stocked in the popular lengths of 50mm, 100mm, 150mm and 200mm.
- Other thermocouple types and probe lengths can be ordered.
- Pt100 RTD Probes:
- Lengths from 50mm to 600mm.
- Pt100 probes are generally stocked in shorter lengths.
- Other RTD types and probe lengths can be ordered.
- Isolated or Non-Isolated Loop Powered Temperature Transmitters.
- With RTD temperature probes, the sensors are generally isolated from the probe metal allowing non-isolated 4-20mA loop
powered transmitters to be used as a lower cost alternative. Isolated 4-20mA transmitters are still preferred though, as these have higher noise immunity and are electrically safer in the industrial environment.
- With temperature probes using thermocouples, the sensor may touch the metal of the probe so isolated transmitters are supplied. This avoids ground loops.
- The supplied 4-20mA transmitters can be ordered with or without HART communications built in.
- HART versions require a HART modem or HART communicator for configuraton.
- With RTD temperature probes, the sensors are generally isolated from the probe metal allowing non-isolated 4-20mA loop
- Cofiguration of Temperature Transmitters.
- The transmitter temperature measurement ranges are configured free prior to shipment. This also ensures that the equipment has been checked by a qualified engineer or technician and was confirmed functionally perfect prior to shipping.
- USB cables can be ordered if you wish to reconfigure transmitters on site.
- The configuration software is free to download from our site.
In summary, Meascom’s range of industrial temperature measurement probes, transmitters and thermowells are configurable and affordable, yet reliable and accurate.
