Special Applications – Multi-Point Thermocouples
TCP has worked closely with major petrochemical and refinery design companies in the development of multi-point thermocouple assemblies for specialized applications. These designs are currently in service world-wide throughout the petrochemical and refinery industry.


Spring Loaded Multi-Point Thermocouples
A leaf spring holds the junction to the inner wall of the thermowell. Spring loaded multi-points respond quickly to temperature changes. Thermocouple replacement requires entire element assembly to be returned to the factory for servicing or replacing the entire element.


Free Hanging Multi-Point Thermocouples
Thermocouple elements are mounted to the desired length then bundled together. This type of assembly is often small in diameter allowing the thermocouples to fill up the inner area of the thermowell which reduces thermal lag. Thermocouple sensors can be […]


Multi-Guide Tube
This is the most common and reliable multi-point design. It offers long life with little maintenance. Each guide tube is welded to a plug which is then welded into and becomes an integral part of the wall of the thermowell. […]
