- Type N Inserts – Rigid metal tubes commonly used in pocket, thermowell or head assemblies.
- Type N Elements – Basic elements for further assembly into sheaths or equipment.
Thermocouple Type N Technical Details
Thermocouple type N is a relativity new type that was made to be an alternative to Type K. It has high stability over time but is more costly than type K at similar temperature ranges. Its sensitivity is about 39 µV/°C, slightly lower compared to type K.
