Tempco Temperature Sensors
Tempco offers a wide variety of Temperature Sensor products such as Jack Panels, RTDs, Thermocouples, Thermistors, Specialty Sensors, Thermowells, and Sensor Accessories. Ensure the most accurate process temperature in your manufacturing process with Tempco’s wide range of sensor products and accessories.
Jack Panels are made from rugged, .090″ thick aluminum and allow for easy installation of multi-circuit thermocouple or RTD Quick Disconnect Jacks in your panel or housing.
Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs) are temperature sensing devices consisting of a wire coil or deposited film of pure metal. The element’s resistance increases with temperature in a known and repeatable manner.

Thermistors are resistive devices usually made of metal oxides formed into a bead and encapsulated in epoxy or glass. Thermistors are typically less expensive than a thermocouple or RTD but their useful temperature range is limited.
Thermocouples with a noble metal junction may be rated as high as 1700°C (3100°F). The inherent simplicity of thermocouples makes them resistant to shock and vibration. A fine-wire thermocouple junction takes up little space and has low mass, making it suitable for point sensing and fast response.
Standard and custom manufactured Thermowells and Protection Tubes provide a variety of ways to protect a temperature sensor from high velocity, high pressure, and corrosive and harsh environments.
