Pyrosales have been producing temperature solutions for the Glass Industry for more than 20 years. Our products are constantly being updated to meet the challenging

The following guidelines, drawn from our many years’ experience of serving the glass and furnace industries, will help achieve the best performance from high temperature

Thermocouple Type R: Types R thermocouples, (Platinum vs. 13% Rhodium/Platinum), are usable up to 1480°C (2,700°F). They are extremely stable but reducing atmospheres are particularly damaging.

Thermocouple Type T: Type T (Copper-Constantan) thermocouples are suited for measurements in the −200 to 350°C  (-330 to 660°F) range. They are often used as a

Thermocouple Type N: Type N (Nicrosil/Nisil) thermocouple has a Nicrosil (nickel-14%, chromium-1.5%, and silicon) positive leg, and a Nisil (nickel- 4.5%, silicon-1%, and magnesium) negative leg.

Service Life Useful thermocouple life is a difficult prediction to make, even when most of the details of an application are known. And unfortunately, such

Thermocouple Type B: Platinum – 30% Rhodium (+) vs. Platinum – 6% Rhodium (-) With a general application range from 870 – 1700°C (1600 –

Thermocouple Type C: Type C (Tungsten 5% Rhenium – Tungsten 26% Rhenium) thermocouples are suited for measurements in the 0 – 2320°C (32 – 4200°F) range. 

Thermocouple Type E: Type E (Chromel®/Constantan) thermocouple is composed of a positive leg of Chromel® (nickel/10% chromium) and a negative leg of Constantan (nickel/45% copper). The
