Type K is the most common thermocouple conductor(≥500℃), it has a good resistance against oxidation and can be recommended for oxidizing and inert atmospheres.It can not be used in sulphurous and vacuum atmospheres directly at a high temperature,as this will have a significant impact on the EMF values. The composition of positive(KP) is Ni90Cr10, negative(KN) is Ni97Si3.
SICC can supply type K bare thermocouple wire meet the accuracy standard IEC60584 and ASTM E230, The advanced melting skills combined controls the chemical composition to achieve the highest quality products , our produce base has the capacity of 900 tons annual with 35000 square meters that can meet your comprehensive requirements. Whatever the bright annealed or oxidized conditions,all thermocouple conductors are calibrated at our lab ,this includes the testing of EMF, chemical composition,physical and thermoelectric properties before shipment.
