The thermocouple generally consists of a sensor which senses a temperature and a measuring instrument main body which instructs it.
To determine a temperature with the thermocouple, an electromotive force and the temperature at a reference junction are required. Accordingly, the temperature at the reference junction is measured with a reference junction compensator installed in the measuring instrument main body, and the temperature at the hot junction is derived from that temperature and the electromotive force.
Employing the same kind of metal as the thermocouple for a connector and integrating the reference junction and the reference junction compensator, our thermocouple thermometer allows consistent temperature measurement even if the temperature of a measuring environment changes abruptly.
