Double Tube | Aluminum Screw Cover Head
Double Tube right angle thermocouples utilize two protection tubes. They can be a combination of metal and ceramic tubes. They are used to monitor temperatures for heat treating, salt baths, casting, or hot dip galvanizing. A variety of high temperature alloys can be used for the metal tube. An elbow also connects the hot and cold legs of the assembly. This right angle construction is very useful. It keeps the thermocouple connection head away from radiated heat from the process. Angle thermocouples also help avoid contact with covers above the process.
