Have you replaced your thermocouple lately?

Your furnace environment is wearing on your thermocouple, and a failed thermocouple can shut down production.  Don’t risk losing your product – and losing revenue.  Don’t put your production schedule on hold.  Replacing a thermocouple is easy and inexpensive.  Great idea to keep a spare in your shop!

Thermocouple failure happens – they get damaged, sheaths fail, they short out.  Contamination, corrosion, oxidation can all occur from normal heat treating.


Remember, your thermocouple tells your controller how much heat to supply to your product in the chamber.  Keep your product safe!  Keep your furnace from melting down!  Replace that old thermocouple today!
