🧠 What It Means

  • Made of nickel-chromium and nickel-alumel.

  • Measures temps from -200°C to 1,260°C.

  • Critical in thermal control and efficiency monitoring.

Key Challenges

  • Needs shielding from hydrogen embrittlement.

  • Calibration can drift over time.

  • Not suitable for all corrosive environments.
