A Bayonet Thermocouple is a type of thermocouple which uses a Bayonet type mounting for process connection.
It can be said Bayonet mount or a Bayonet Fastener is a fastening mechanism which consists of a cylindrical male side with pins mounted radially, and a female receptor with L-shaped slot(s) which matches the pins and with spring(s) which forces the parts to stick together.
This type of connection is most commonly found in electric bulbs.
Specifications:
1. Thermocouple Type J, K, or N Standard Limits of Error ± 2.2°C or 0.75% (which ever is greater)
2. Thermocouple Type T Standard Limits of Error ± 1.0°C or 0.75%; (which ever is greater)
3. Thermocouple Type E Standard Limits of Error ± 1.7°C or 0.50% (which ever is greater)
4. Thermocouple Type R or S Standard Limits of Error ± 1.5°C or 0.25% (which ever is greater)
5. Thermocouple Type B Standard Limits of Error ± 0.50%
The six standard design's are available to meet the requirements for space conservation while the cap and spring are provided to insure optimum contact with the process. With a pipe clamp adapter, the sensor can also be used to measure pipe wall and bearing temperatures.
These six configuration are divided into two parts:-
Adjustable Immersion
1. Bayonet on Flex Armor2. Bayonet on Flex Armor with transition
3. Bayonet on Spring
Fixed Immersion
1. Bayonet Straight2. Bayonet 45° Degree Bend
3. Bayonet 90° Degree Bend
Applications :
1. Used in extruder & Plastic processing industries.
2. These sensors provide accurate temperature control for the best plasticizing combination of plastic
material , mold & design.
3. Used in die casting industries.
4. Used in packaging & other industrial sensing application.
