An expanded line of rugged thermocouples and RTD temperature sensors offers more than 50 new sensor models available in various sizes and configurations. Sensors can be easily combined with temperature meters, controllers and a complete line of accessories - including connectors, transmitters and extension wires - to deliver robust solutions for a wide range of temperature measurement and control requirements.

Thermocouple and RTD sensor models offer numerous configurations for increased versatility in diverse applications. Models include a series of quick-disconnect temperature probes featuring both miniature and standard size connector terminations. Probes are available in numerous calibration types, sheath materials, and diameters and are supplied with a mating female connector. New RTD sensor models include the TMPRT001 surface mount sensor with an advanced design that easily withstands high vibration environments. The TMPRTOO2 pipe plug RTD sensor delivers reliable operation in pressure vessel applications. Both RTD sensors feature optional mini-connectors.

In addition, Red Lion offers numerous thermocouple models with extensive temperature sensing ranges, including the TMPKC high temperature model, which additionally provides flexibility and abrasion resistance. The TMPKU handheld utility thermocouple features a retractable cable with superior memory and a subminiature connector for use with handheld thermometers. Additionally, TMPKTJ transition joint probes - featuring a spring strain relief at the "cold" end - prevent pinching of the thermocouple wire.

Sensor models are compatible with variety of optional connectors, making sensors simple to install and use for plug-and-play operation in many applications. TMPTRN 2-wire connectors feature built-in signal amplifiers to convert signals to a standard 4mA to 20mA output for use with J-, K-, and T-type thermocouples, and connectors are available to accommodate RTD sensors as well. Additionally, TMPCN standard size and miniature quick-disconnect connectors come in both male and female termination options for use with ANSI type J, K, T or E thermocouples.
