Thermocouple Replacement Elements – BT Style
Click to enlarge
Thermocouple replacement elements are inner probes or sensors that fit into the protective sheath or tube of existing industrial beaded thermocouple assemblies or protection tubes. The base metal thermocouple elements are specifically designed to provide replacement components containing thermocouple wires, ceramic or no insulating materials, and some terminals or connectors at one end. These thermocouple replacement elements are offered with different calibrations, insulator types, AWG gauges, junctions, and fractional lengths to provide the ideal replacement element for any industrial thermocouple.
Eustis/Pyrocom manufactures high-quality thermocouple replacement elements in twisted or butt welded junctions, single or dual element, and capable of temperatures up to 2300°F or 1260°C.

When to Replace a Thermocouple Element
Base metal thermocouple elements are suited as replacements when the original industrial beaded thermocouple assemblies show many inaccuracies with readings or errors. Many factors point to when a thermocouple element needs to be replaced with a thermocouple replacement element option. It’s important to note that the right factors must be set through our customization options to choose the right element. Signs that the thermocouple element would need to be replaced include:- Inaccurate or drifting temperature readings
- The element has exceeded its temperature limit
- Mechanical damage or corrosion
- Calibration out of specs
