Duplex Thermocouple
Duplex Thermocouples use two junctions in one sensor. Duplex Thermocouples are used in applications where downtime must be kept to a minimum, one sensor will be used until it reaches the end of its lifespan, then the wire can be quickly swapped round to the other junction and a replacement sensor can be ordered. If you use a 4-20mA Transmitter it can be setup to automatically move on to the 'back up' junction for zero downtime.
A Duplex Thermocouple can also used in applications where two outputs are necessary e.g one output connected to a LED Panel Indicator and one output to a temperature controller.
We can manufacture any sensor you can see in our standard range as a Duplex version, please contact us if you have a specific Duplex Thermocouple requirement.
Below are just a few of the Thermocouples from our standard range, however if you need something specifically to your requirements contact us as we will manufacture bespoke products to order.
