Miniature Socket
The Type 30 Brake Disc Rubbing Thermocouple has been specifically designed to monitor brake disc temperatures up to a maximum of 1560°F. It incorporates a fast response miniature mineral insulated thermocouple sensor (0.020" dia. simplex, 0.040" dia. duplex, heavy duty version is 0.040" for both simplex and duplex) which is microwelded to a floating, fully adjustable stainless steel shoe. The sensor can be easily adjusted by setting the spring pressure using the supplied screw and locknut set. This allows for perfect setting of the temperature sensor on the brake disc in a variety of applications. The brake disc rubbing thermocouple is then easily mounted into position through a 5mm fixing hole which is set in the main body.
  • Specifically designed for brake disc temperature monitoring up to 1560°F
  • Standard, Robust or Heavy Duty versions available
  • Easily mounted and fully adjustable for perfect location of the shoe via a screw and nut set on the main body
  • Thermocouple Types K, T, J, N or E available
  • color coded to ANSI MC96.1 or IEC584.3
  • See detailed information on how a thermocouple works

Temperature ranges refer to the thermocouple type.
The temperature range of the sensor may deviate from the above,
please refer to the product description for more details

INSULATED
Hot junction insulated from sheath. Gives floating output with typical insulation resistance in excess of 100 megohms

GROUNDED
Hot junction welded to sheath tip giving earthed output and faster response to temperature changes
