A thermocouple is a highly reliable temperature sensor composed of two dissimilar metal wires joined at one end to form a measuring junction. When exposed to temperature variations, this junction generates a small voltage (Seebeck effect), which correlates directly to temperature changes. As the core component in temperature instrumentation, thermocouples convert thermal signals into electromotive force (EMF), enabling secondary devices to display precise readings for°C to 1,600°C** (extendable to -270°C to 2,800°C under specialized conditions).
