Thermocouple Capacitance Welder (CW):
Although thermocouple hot junctions are frequently made by twisting a pair of conductors together by hand, this is not considered good practise when accurate and reliable measurements are required.
When validating pharmaceutical autoclaves and liophilizers or temperature mapping process vessels, it is necessary to use thermocouples that have a properly formed homogenous hot junction. This can only be achieved by fusing the two conductors together in a welding process.
The SR48 is an economical solution for producing hot junctions that are able to provide sustained and reliable temperature measurement. The unit is based on the capacitance discharge principal and is designed for bench mounting, operating from a 100/110V or 220/240V AC supply.
