Thermocouple assemblies

Conax thermocouple designs have proven their durability and reliability in applications ranging from large industrial processing plants to highly specialized laboratory testing and validation. Our extensive knowledge of the science of temperature measurement and the physical properties of materials used for sheathing and insulation, enables us to recommend the most effective product or custom design a solution to your application needs.

Conax thermocouple assemblies offer a wide variety of termination styles and mounting fittings, as well as extensive choices in sensor calibration, sheath diameter and sheath material.

RTD assemblies

Conax Technologies designs and manufactures RTD assemblies for a wide variety of industries and applications, including wire-wound platinum RTD assemblies that can be bent like a thermocouple, except in the tip portion that contains the element. Our thin film platinum element assemblies (M-style) and copper and nickel element assemblies (E-style) feature a minimum active length of 3”.

To meet the precise requirements of your application, Conax provides RTD assemblies with a wide variety of:

• termination styles,
• mounting fittings,
• sensor tolerances,
• sheath diameters, and
• sheath materials.

Quality assurance

Conax thermocouples and RTDs are engineered, tested and inspected before shipment. Our quality assurance programs conform to AS9100D with ISO 9001:2015 and IEC 80079-34 standards for design and manufacture of temperature sensors, mineral insulated cable, and pressure and vacuum sealing devices.

ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation and AMS 2750 compliance

Conax Technologies’ calibration laboratory is ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accredited. This accreditation sets the national standard of excellence for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories. This accreditation officially recognizes Conax as fully capable and competent and assures customers that our lab will produce valid and reliable results.

Conax has also met additional requirements to obtain ILAC MRA (International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation, Mutual Recognition Arrangement) certification, ensuring our calibration lab is in compliance with a host of worldwide standards dealing with calibration laboratory quality.

With our ISO/IEC 17025:2017 accreditation, Conax is fully capable of producing calibration data that’s compliant with the latest AMS 2750. A broad range of industries perform heat treating processes. Conax offers thermocouples that can be calibrated to AMS 2750 standards for the following thermocouple types:

• Base metal thermocouples, such as types K and N with operating temperatures up to 2300ºF (1260ºC)
• Noble metal TCs, including types S and R with operating temperatures up to 2700°F (1480°C)
