J-Type Thermocouples are suitable for use in vacuum, nitriding, oxidizing, reducing, and inert atmospheres, but the positive electrode (iron) oxidizes quickly at high temperatures. Therefore, the operating temperature is limited, and they cannot be used directly without protection at high temperatures above 500°C in oxidizing atmospheres.

E-Type thermocouples are less sensitive to corrosion in high-humidity atmospheres and are suitable for environments with high humidity. E-Type thermocouples also have good stability, better oxidation resistance than copper-constantan and iron-constantan thermocouples, and are more cost-effective. Suitable for use in oxidizing and inert atmospheres, widely adopted by users.

E-Type Thermocouples cannot be used directly at high temperatures in sulfur or reducing atmospheres because of its poor thermoelectric uniformity.

It has advantages such as good linearity, high thermoelectric voltage, high sensitivity, good stability and uniformity, and is cost-effective. Particularly used in the -200 to 0°C temperature range, with better stability, annual stability can be less than ±3μV. It can be used for low-temperature calibration as a second-class standard for low-temperature value transfer.

T-type thermocouple has poor oxidation resistance at high temperatures, limiting its maximum operating temperature.

Nickel-Chromium-Silicon or Nickel-Silicon-Magnesium Thermocouple (N-Type Thermocouple) is a low-cost metal thermocouple and the latest internationally standardized thermocouple. Its overall performance is superior to the K-type thermocouple. The N-type thermocouple should not be directly used in high-temperature sulfur, reducing, or cyclic reducing-oxidizing atmospheres and in a vacuum. It is also not recommended for weak oxidizing atmospheres.

• The nominal chemical composition of the positive electrode (NP) is: Ni:Cr:Si ≈ 84.4:14.2:1.4
• The nominal chemical composition of the negative electrode (NN) is: Ni:Si:Mg ≈ 95.5:4.4:0.1
• The temperature range for use is -200 to 1300°C.

Platinum-Rhodium wire is a binary alloy of platinum containing rhodium, which forms a continuous solid solution at high temperatures. Platinum-Rhodium wire in the thermocouple series has high accuracy, excellent stability, a wide temperature measurement range, long service life, and high maximum temperature measurement capabilities. Suitable for use in oxidizing and inert atmospheres, it can also be used short-term in a vacuum, but is not suitable for reducing atmospheres or atmospheres containing metallic or non-metallic vapors.
