Thermocouple Type j
TYPE J THERMOCOUPLE (Iron/Constantan)
Composed of a positive leg which is iron and a negative leg which is approximately 45 % nickel-55% copper. (Note - Constantan is Copper-Nickel.)
When protected by compacted mineral insulation and appropriate outer sheath, Type J is useable from 0 to 816°C, (32 to 1500°F). It is not susceptible to aging in the 371 to 538°C, (700 to 1000°F) temperature range. A drift rate of 1 to 2°C, (2 to 4°F) occurs with Type E and K in the 371 to 538°C, (700 to 1000°F) temperature range. This low cost, stable calibration is primarily used with 96% pure MgO insulation and a stainless steel sheath.
Thermocouple Grade- 32°F to 1382°F, 0 to 750°C
Extension Grade- 32°F to 392°F, 0 to 200°C
