Thermocouples contribute to the efficient development of the global industrial temperature measurement field
With the continuous increase in global industrial automation and energy efficiency demands, medium and low-temperature thermocouples, as core components in the field of temperature measurement, are undergoing a new round of technological innovation. Through material optimization and intelligent design, domestic and foreign manufacturers have further enhanced the precision, stability and applicability of their products, providing more reliable solutions for industries such as chemical engineering, food, pharmaceuticals and new energy.
Technological Breakthrough: Dual upgrade of precision and durability
Recently, leading thermocouple manufacturers have launched a number of new products optimized for medium and low-temperature environments (-200°C to 600°C). Highlights include:
Material innovation: By adopting special alloys (such as T-type, J-type or E-type thermocouples) and ceramic insulation technology, signal drift is significantly reduced and service life is prolonged.
Intelligent integration: Some models are equipped with built-in micro signal conversion modules, which can directly output digital signals, are compatible with PLC and IoT platforms, and meet the requirements of Industry 4.0.
Environmental protection design: Lead-free and corrosion-resistant coating technology complies with EU RoHS and international environmental protection standards, helping customers comply with export regulations.
Application scenario expansion
The demand for medium and low-temperature thermocouples has soared in the following fields:
Food processing: High-precision temperature control in cold chain logistics and sterilization processes;
Laboratory equipment: Stability monitoring for biomedical research and development
Renewable energy: Temperature management of lithium battery energy storage systems and solar collectors.
Trends in the foreign trade market
According to industry reports, the global thermocouple market size is expected to exceed 5 billion US dollars in 2024, and the procurement demand for cost-effective sensors in emerging economies continues to grow. With the advantages of mature industrial chains and customized services, Chinese suppliers have become important partners of customers in Europe, America and Southeast Asia.
