Stainless steel connection head

aluminumplasticthermocouple

Overview
Connection heads are the connection and mounting housings used with thermocouples and resistance thermometers (RTDs). They provide the mechanical interface between sensor elements and external wiring, while protecting internal components from electrical interference, contaminants, moisture and mechanical damage. Typical construction materials include die-cast light metal, stainless steel and engineered plastics, with common variants available from stock.
