Plugs and sockets are crucial components in temperature measurement systems, as they facilitate the connection of thermocouples and RTDs (Resistance Temperature Detectors) to their respective measuring or control instruments. These connectors ensure reliable and accurate temperature readings while providing easy installation and maintenance. There are five common groups of plugs and sockets used for temperature measurement: Thermocouple Male Plugs, Thermocouple Female Sockets, Mini Thermocouple Plugs & Sockets, RTD (PT100) Plugs & Sockets, and Panel Mount Thermocouple Sockets. Each group offers unique features tailored to specific requirements and applications.
Thermocouple Male Plugs:
These plugs are designed for use with standard-sized thermocouples, providing a secure connection to female sockets. They are available in various types to match the thermocouple calibration, ensuring accurate temperature readings.
Thermocouple Female Sockets:
Thermocouple female sockets are designed to accept male plugs, establishing a reliable connection for accurate temperature measurement. They are available in different types to correspond with the thermocouple calibration.
Mini Thermocouple Plugs & Sockets:
Mini thermocouple plugs and sockets are smaller and more compact than standard-sized connectors, making them ideal for applications where space is limited. They are available for various thermocouple calibrations to maintain accurate temperature measurements.
RTD (PT100) Plugs & Sockets:
These plugs and sockets are specifically designed for use with RTD (PT100) sensors, ensuring reliable and accurate resistance-based temperature measurements. They are built to accommodate the three-wire or four-wire configuration of RTD sensors.
Panel Mount Thermocouple Sockets:
Panel Mount Thermocouple Sockets are designed for easy installation on control panels or other surfaces, providing a secure connection point for thermocouple male plugs. They are available in various types to match the thermocouple calibration.
