🧠 What It Means

  • Made of nickel-chromium and nickel-alumel.

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