Q1: Can compensating alloy wires of different types be mixed?
A1: No. Compensating alloy wires of K, E, J, T, N and other types have different compositions and thermoelectric characteristics. Mixing will cause serious temperature measurement errors. They must be matched with the corresponding type of thermocouple.
Q2: What happens if positive and negative poles are reversed?
A2: It will cause reverse superposition of thermoelectromotive force, resulting in seriously low or fluctuating temperature display. Long-term reversal may also affect the stability of instrument readings. The positive and negative poles must be distinguished by color codes during wiring.
Q3: Can compensating alloy wire be used as ordinary power wire?
A3: No. It is an alloy material designed specifically for thermoelectric signal transmission. Its conductivity and current-carrying capacity are different from ordinary wires. It is only suitable for temperature signal circuits and cannot be used for power supply lines.
Q4: What is the effect of excessively high ambient temperature?
A4: Exceeding the allowable operating temperature (usually ≤200°C) will cause oxidation of the alloy wire, drift of thermoelectric characteristics, insulation aging, and even direct failure, making temperature measurement accuracy unguaranteed.
Q5: Can the alloy wire still be used with slight surface oxidation?
A5: Slight oxidation generally does not affect use. If serious oxidation, blackening, embrittlement or peeling occurs, it will cause poor contact and unstable signals. Replacement is recommended in time.
