Brake Disc Thermocouple with Miniature Connector

This specialised thermocouple is designed for accurate temperature measurement on rotating brake discs and similar rubbing surfaces. Featuring a unique spring-loaded design, durable construction, and a miniature connector, this sensor provides reliable temperature readings in dynamic testing environments.

Key Features

• Rubbing Contact Design: The thermocouple features a spring-loaded design with the exposed tip maintained against the measuring surface.
• Exposed Hot Junction: Small thermocouple exposed at the contact point to get accurate temperature measurements.
• Durable Stainless Steel Construction: Built with stainless steel to withstand the stresses of brake testing.
• Braided Cable: The stainless steel braided cable offers high flexibility and resistance to abrasion, ensuring long-lasting performance even with continuous movement.
• Miniature Connector: The teal miniature connector (likely K-type) allows for quick and easy connection and disconnection to data acquisition systems.
• High Response Time: Designed for rapid temperature response to capture dynamic temperature changes during braking events.
• Spring-Loaded Mechanism: The spring ensures consistent contact with the brake disc surface, minimising measurement errors.
