Molten
metal
tip portable pyrometers are used for reading melt temperatures of non-ferrous metals such as Aluminum, Brass, Bronze
(except Phosphor Bronze) and Magnesium. The tips are constructed from 446 stainless steel and have a maximum service temperature of
2300° F
(
1260° C
). Some other alloys, such as #
8
& #
9
may be specially ordered (Consult factory). The thermocouples are Type K and are
within standard limits of error (special limits can be specially ordered). The reduced tip diameter allows for quick response times when
immersed into the melt (about 25 seconds).
The pyrometer assemblies with
quartz
tips are made with Type B, R, or S thermocouples, which give them a much higher service tempera-
ture range. These tips are especially good for molten gold and silver applications up to
3000° F
(
1649° C
). All of the Richards portable
pyrometer handles are constructed entirely from 304 stainless steel for maximum durability.
