Style D – Quick Disconnect Assembly

1. Calibration

Select One:

Maximum temperature limits for each ANSI type thermocouple material vary depending on sheath material, application atmosphere, wire gauge, insulation, and epoxy composition.

2. Junction

Tip Style:		Tip style defines the surface area or shape of the thermocouple sensing tip, and the junction type is based on the application. Grounded junctions offer faster response; ungrounded types reduce noise and increase lifespan.
Type:

3. Element Type

Select One:

Up to three thermocouples in a single sheath. Ungrounded junctions can be connected to different instruments.

4. Sheath Operating Temperature

Select One:

The maximum temperature impacts calibration, size, and material of the sensor.

5. Sheath Material

Select One:

304SS and 316SS are commonly used. Choice depends on temperature and corrosive conditions.

6. Sheath Diameter

Select One:

Diameter affects performance. Larger sizes are better for high-temperature applications.

7. Sheath Length “L”

Enter Inches:

The accuracy of the thermocouple is not affected by the length of the sheath. Consult the factory if the probe length exceeds 120 inches.

8. Terminations

Select One:
Temperature:

The type of termination selected may be restricted by the wire gauge.

9. Fittings

Select Type:		Fittings of all thread sizes, materials, and designs are available for most applications.
(For Compression, Bushing, or Hex Nipple only)
Select NPT:

10. Fitting Location “F”

Enter inches from tip (“N” for None):

Measured from the first thread to the sheath tip. Consider thread-in insertion length when determining location.

11. Special Options

12. Bend Angle

Select One:

Do not bend on a radius smaller than 2x the sheath diameter for mineral insulated thermocouples.

13. Bend Location “C”

Enter inches from tip (“N” for None):

Minimum bend location depends on sheath diameter for Mineral Insulated sensors.
