Engage Us Early in Your Project and Reap the Benefits

  • Lower cost: the longer the lead time we have to source raw materials, the lower the price we can achieve for you.
  • Best solution: talking with us at the design stage gives us more time to understand your needs and come up with the best, most cost-effective solution.
  • Production lead times: many factors affect timing. Supply of raw materials is one of them, especially if you need large quantities (some projects need kilometres of thermocouple wire).

All sensors and probes conform to IEC codes, and our Quality Management System is accredited to BS EN 9001:2015. Whether you’re looking to lower supply costs or improve quality and reduce MTBF on components, speak with one of our specialists today.

Thermocouple wire and RTD temperature sensor materials

The Specifics

We are often asked to build replacement temperature sensors and thermocouple probes for equipment that is difficult to trace, or where cost needs to be engineered out of the current probe while keeping it compatible with an OEM product. Whether you need thermocouple, platinum resistance (RTD) or thermistor temperature sensors, you can be confident of quality-assured products.

Probes and temperature sensors are available in all the normal Type K, Type J and Type T, N, S and R thermocouple materials, RTD, PRT, PT100, PT500 and PT1000 platinum resistance, or thermistor bead. Industrial probes are available with cable, threaded boss or weatherproof heads. Hand-held probes come with a choice of handle and retractile or normal cable. A range of plugs, sockets and 2-wire transmitters complements our range of temperature sensors.
