A thermocouple is just two wires of different metals, joined at one end. If you know the wire materials for the type thermocouple you want, you can weld the tips together so the cost is in the wire. Fancier store-bought thermocouples can have color-coded wire, insulated junctions and other features that add to the price.

∙ 14y agoyou would need more information to calculate eg length of thermocouple, diameter also the type of thermocouple type R, S or even B, once these parameters are known then the calculation is quite simple.

Why is platinum used to make wire?
all that I know is that jewelry, weapons and battle armor contain platinum. The catalytic converters on cars contain platinum also.
Is platinum wire a element?
Platinum is a chemical element.
Why is it necessary to clean the platinum wire between flame tests?
because platinum wire loops dont impart any color of it own.... NICHROME wire are also used..
What is platinum thermometer?
It is a thermometer using the platinum wire as sensor (resistance thermometer); the resistance of the wire is proportional to the temperature. This type of thermometer is used under 600 0C.
How do you produce 230 volt by thermocouple action?
You don't, a thermocouple's output is in the millivolt range.
Which materials could you use to create a thermocouple?
To create a thermocouple one needs thermocouple wire, a means of spot welding the wire, and wire strippers. A thermocouple is used to measure temperature.
What is maximum voltage produced in thermocouple?
A:The best platinum thermocouple can give upto 64mv
Do you need to use TC extension wire to connect a thermocouple or can you use shielded cable?
You must use thermocouple wire (of the same type as the thermocouple) to extend the circuit. If you switch to a different wire the point of connection between the two becomes a thermocouple junction itself, and the resulting voltage from that junction will skew your reading. You can use any wire to extend a thermocouple connection if you know the temperature of the junction where the thermocouple wire ends--this becomes the reference junction.
How do you splice thermocouple wire?
One splice that would work is a western splice.
What is the maximum power in Watts that can be attained from a thermocouple?
not much, but it will depend on the type of thermocouple
What is the best wire that is used in rings?
If your ring is gold and you gold wire and if your ring is platinum ring then using platinum wire...

Is platinum wire a element?
Platinum is a chemical element.
Can copper wire be used for thermocouple extention?
No. A thermocouple is made from two dissimilar wires. At the junction of these two wires, an electrical signal is generated that is measured in millivolts. If you insert another type of wire, such as copper, then you have introduced another electrical junction. Your signal will be (millivolt from junction 1 + millivolt from junction 2). <><><> Maybe. A thermocouple measures the temperature difference between the sensing junction (where the two different metal wires meet) and the other end of the wire, the reference junction. If you extend a thermocouple with copper wire, you will measure the temperature difference between the junction and the location where the copper extension is spliced on. If the copper splice is the same temperature as the reference junction, or if you can measure the temperature at the splice, then it will be fine. In general, it is better to run the thermocouple wire to the reference junction.
Do automotive sensors have platinum?
The MAF sensor has a tiny platinum wire in it.
Why is it necessary to clean the platinum wire between flame tests?
because platinum wire loops dont impart any color of it own.... NICHROME wire are also used..
Why does platinum wire fuse more easily in the glass than a copper wire?
No
