Thermocouple welder TC-W100A

resistancefor copper

The TC-W100A thermocouple welder is easy to use and designed to operate in either a production or laboratory environment. First, select the wire gauge using the selector knob on the front panel. Then, simply load the stripped wire (1), insert the handpiece (2), and remove the welded thermocouple (3). Operators should average 5 to 10 welds per minute on a production basis, if wires are prestripped and the control is preset. - Welds fresh thermocouples on demand, consistent in size and quality, and without detrimental oxide layers. - Perfect for medical applications to anchor arthroscopic tools. - May also be used to aid in the normal resistance welding of very small wires; by forming a ball on the end of the wire, more mass is given to weld the wire to something else. - Argon gas weld chamber for joining most thermocouple wire from 38 AWG (.004 inch/.102 mm diameter) to 20 AWG (.032 inch/ .813 mm diameter) - TC-W100A will make thermocouples of all commercially available thermocouple alloys including: - BPlatinum 30 Rh (Platinum 6 Rh), - CTungsten 5 Re (Tungsten 26 Re), - EChromel (Constantan), - JIron (Constantan), - KChromel (Alumel), - RPlatinum 13, - Rh (Platinum), - SPlatinum 10 Rh - (Platinum), - TCopper (Constantan)
