Mineral Insulated (MIR and MIT) Sensor
Both the MIR and MIT sensors are manufactured from ready made, stock lengths of stainless steel sheathed, mineral insulated signal or thermocouple wire.
These sensors can be produced in either PT100 RTD or thermocouple formats.
The soft annealed stainless steel sheath is flexible and allows the user to bend and shape the sheath when required. MI´s are available from as small as 0.5mm in diameter, far smaller than is possible with fabricated rigid stems and as such are extremely flexible, though not as robust.
Various diameters and grades of stainless steel are also available to suit process requirements. These sensors are supplied as plain stems with lead wire as standard, alternatively terminal heads are available when required and various process connections to suit.
Sensors are available in single, duplex or triplex formats with resistance thermometers available in 2, 3 or 4 wire connection.
