Type T Thermocouple (Copper/Constantan): The Type T is a very stable thermocouple and is often used in extremely low temperature applications such as cryogenics or ultra low freezers. It is found in other laboratory environments as well. The type T has excellent repeatability between –380F to 392F (–200C to 200C).. 

Type T Temperature Range:


• Thermocouple grade wire, -454 to 700F (-270 to 370C)

• Extension wire, 32 to 392F (0 to 200C)




• Type T Accuracy (whichever is greater):




• Standard: +/- 1.0C or +/- .75%

• Special Limits of Error: +/- 0.5C or 0.4%




• Consideration for bare wire type T thermocouple applications:

• The Type T Is Well Suited To Oxidizing Atmospheres
