Easy to Order -
1 - State quantity
2 - Specify the part number (ours or competitive)
3 - Specify the hot (
H
) and cold leg (
C
) lengths.
Multiples of 6” (152.4 mm) starting at 12” are stock.
4 - Add letters for mounting attachments
5 - For Double Element Assembly add a “
D
” to
the part number.
8K6D-601-12-18-SH
Example:
The part number
8K6-1012XH-12-18-SH
signifies an gauge, Type K,
angle Assembly, 12” long hot leg made from 1/2” NPT Extra Heavy #10 alloy tube (32%
Nickel-21% Chromium), 18” long cold leg made from a steel balance pipe, and a Stand-
ard Head. Other combinations of thermocouples and tubes can be specified depending
on your application.
!
Note:
If you would like to order a Type E, J, or N assembly, just substitute the “
K
”
with an E, J, or N in the part numbers listed on this page.
Hot Leg of Thermocouple = H Cold leg of thermocouple = C
Multiples of 6” (152.4 mm), starting at 12” (304.8 mm) are considered stock items
