allows customised positioning of the measurement sensor on the surface of interest . Monitoring of aluminium bonnet , roof and door panels is possible with confidence .
Routine monitoring of paint lines is often implemented using a permanently set-up nonproduction test body . In such case the thermocouples can be fixed securely to the body . Ideal for this situation washer thermocouples can be permanently screwed
Washer Thermocouple
into place guaranteeing identical test conditions run to run .
For composites , plastics the recommended thermocouple is the responsive , low thermal mass , exposed junction thermocouple attached using high temperature tape . The versatile thermocouple can be used also for air / environment monitoring for oven surveys ( TUS ) and for monitoring the cure of high temperature structural adhesives essential for safety compliance . The tip of
Taped Exposed Junction Thermocouple
the thermocouple can be inserted directly into the core of the adhesive pack being thermally cured .
The exposed junction thermocouple is the perfect choice if monitoring paint cure in an IR oven ( electric emitter or catalytic gas / radiant heater ).
The thermocouple can be overcoated to measure accurately the rapid surface heating at the interface between substrate surface and coating ( Medium Wavelength IR 2 – 4 µ m ) and or the influence of coating colour / emissivity on IR absorption , so temperature change ( Short Wavelength IR < 2 µ m ).
If confidence in measurement accuracy and precision is important in your product temperature profiling strategies remember the thermocouple you choose is critical . Contact PhoenixTM today to learn more of how we can help you maximize your test and measurement performance .
