Scope1.1 This specification contains reference tables (Tables825) that give temperature-electromotive force (emf) relation-ships for Types B, E, J, K, N, R, S, T, and C thermocouples.2These are the thermocouple types most commonly used inindustry.1.2 Also included
4、 are lists of standard and special toleranceson initial values of emf versus temperature for thermocouples(Table 1), thermocouple extension wires (Table 2), and com-pensating extension wires for thermocouples (Table 3).1.3 Tables 45, included herein, give data on insulationcolor coding for thermocou
5、ple and thermocouple extensionwires as customarily used in the United States.1.4 Recommendations regarding upper temperature limitsfor the thermocouple types referred to in 1.1 are given in Table6.1.5 Tables 2645 give temperature-emf data for single-legthermoelements referenced to platinum (NIST Pt
6、67). Thetables include values for Types BP, BN, JP, JN, KP (same asEP), KN, NP, NN, TP, and TN (same as EN).1.6 Tables for Types RP, RN, SP, and SN thermoelementsare not included since, nominally, Tables 1821 represent thethermoelectric properties of Type RP and SP thermoelementsreferenced to pure p
7、latinum. Tables for the individual thermo-elements of Type C are not included because materials for TypeC thermocouples are normally supplied as matched pairs only.1.7 Polynomial coefficients that may be used for computa-tion of thermocouple emf as a function of temperature aregiven in Table 7. Coef
8、ficients for the emf of each thermocouplepair as well as for the emf of most individual thermoelementsversus platinum are included. Coefficients for type RP and SPthermoelements are not included since they are nominally thesame as for the types R and S thermocouples, and coefficientsfor type RN or S
9、N relative to the nominally similar Pt-67would be insignificant. Coefficients for the individual thermo-elements of type C are not established.1.8 Coefficients for sets of inverse polynomials are given inTable 44. These may be used for computing a close approxi-mation of temperature (C) as a functio
10、n of thermocouple emf.Inverse functions are provided only for thermocouple pairs andare valid only over the emf ranges specified.1.9 This specification is intended to define the thermoelec-tric properties of materials that conform to the relationshipspresented in the tables of this standard and bear

19、OTE 1It is beyond the scope of this standard to discuss the origin ofthese tables, but if further information is desired, the reader should consultthe NIST reference noted above.3.3 These tables give emf values to three decimalplaces (1 V) at temperature intervals of one degree. Suchtables are satis

If greaterprecision is required, the reader should refer to the NISTreference noted above which includes tables giving emf valuesto four decimal places (0.1 V) for each type except type C.Equations which p

Forconvenience, coefficients of inverse polynomials that may beused to compute approximate temperature (C) as a function ofthermocouple emf are given in Table 46.4.

25、).4.2 Each letter designation of 4.1 identifies a specifictemperature-emf relationship (Tables 823) and may be ap-plied to any thermocouple conforming thereto within statedtolerances on initial values of emf versus temperature, regard-less of its composition.4.3 The thermoelement identifying symbols
26、 in Tables 26 to45 use the suffix letters P and N to denote, respectively, thepositive and negative thermoelement of a given thermocoupletype.4.4 Tables 26 to 45 identify specific temperature-emf rela-tionships of individual thermoelements with respect to plati-num (NIST Pt-67). Although tolerances
27、on initial values of emfversus temperature, in most cases, are not established forindividual thermoelements with respect to platinum, the appro-priate letter designation may be applied to any thermoelementwhich, when combined with its mating thermoelement, willform a thermocouple conforming to the c
28、orresponding tablewithin the stated tolerances.4.5 An overall suffix letter “X” (for example KX, TX, EPX,JNX) denotes an “extension grade” material whose thermo-electric properties will match those of the correspondingthermocouple type within the stated extension grade tolerancesover a limited tempe
29、rature span. Most base metal extensionwires have the same nominal composition as the thermocouplewires with which they are intended to be used, whereas thecompensating extension wires for noble metal or refractorymetal thermocouple types (S, R, B, or C) are usually of adifferent, more economical com
30、position whose relative ther-moelectric properties as a pair nonetheless closely approximatethose of the noble metal or refractory metal thermocoupleswith which they are to be used.5.

These aresupplied, by common practice, to a toler
32、ance equivalent to onehalf the millivolt tolerance of the Type K thermocouple.5.1.2 For all other thermocouple types, tolerances on initialvalues of emf versus temperature for single thermoelements,when required, should be established by agreement betweenthe consumer and the producer.5.1.3 In refere
33、nce Tables 34, 35, 44, and 45, the thermoele-ments are identified by two thermoelement symbols indicatingtheir applicability to two thermocouple types. This indicatesthat the temperature-electromotive force relationship of thetable is typical of the referenced thermoelements over thetemperature rang

It should not be assumed, however, thatthermoelements used with one thermocouple type are inter-changeable with those of the other, or that they have the samemillivolt tolerances for the initial values of emf versus tem-perature.5Discussed i
