Approx. response timeungrounded in water ** Long Life, Low Maintenance If your application operates at the punishing temperature of nearly 1204C (2200F), changing out failed thermocouples costs money in excessive maintenance, slows or cuts production, and can cause inconsistent product quality. In head-to-head tests, Super OMEGACLAD XL Thermocouple probes consistently post 1204C (2200F) replace 17 of theirs the best performance results. Our innovative in 52 days or just one of ours temperature sensors last upwards of 10 times In life-cycle lab testing, the OMEGACLAD XL sheathed, 0.125 Type K Probe operated or longer when compared to competitors continuously for 52 days at 1204C (2200F) while Inconel 600 sheathed probes of equal or competitors 0.125 Inconel 600 sheathed, Type K larger diameters.

A-43 Test Temperature in Degrees CelsiusA Low Drift, Reliable Temperatures Super OMEGACLAD XLs low-drift characteristic ensures reliability of temperature readings longer than any other brand or sheath material. Within 15 weeks, Brands A, B, and C exhibited more than 8.3C drift. At 25 weeks, OMEGACLAD XLs drift was less than 2.8C.* Long-Term EMF Drift Test 1149C (2100F) K Calibration, 3.2 mm (1/8 in ) Diameter Probes Super OMEGACLAD XL vs. Competitors OMEGACLAD XL Brand A Brand B INCONEL 600 8.3 15 5.6 10 2.8 5 0 0 OMEGACLAD XL -2.8 -5 -5.6 -10 -8.3 -15 0 5 10 15 20 25 Elapsed Time - Weeks Tests conducted using ungrounded probes in an open-air, * OMEGAs products making OMEGAs products.
