Mineral insulated thermocouples are manufactured with compacted MgO insulation housed in a stainless steel or alloy sheath that protects the thermocouple element from the application environment. This construction provides an incredibly durable design that can be adapted to a wide variety of applications.
The compacted MgO construction offers superior life compared to other types of thermocouples due to the ability to withstand extreme thermal shock and prevent contamination of the element itself.
