The FW3 Fine Wire Thermocouple is typically used to measure atmospheric temperature gradients or fluctuations. The small mass of the thermocouple is less susceptible to solar loading; therefore, a radiation shield is not required. One differential analog input per sensor is required.
Features
- FW3 has a 0.003 inch diameter
- Extremely small diameters virtually eliminate solar loading
- Type E thermocouples—typical output is 60 µV/°C
- Typically used to measure atmospheric temperature flux with research-grade accuracy
- Shipping/transport requires TCBR/ENC (capacity=4)
Specifications
- Weight: 2 oz (45 g)
- Length: 14.5" (36.8 cm)
