Question on CHAL-002
I bought CHAL-002 to 005 to fit my needs. They wirk great. Love them.
CHAL-002 seems to fit best for my needs however the wire is so delicate that it kept breaking when I connected to controller. Any suggestions?

Great product
These thermocouples are great for measuring the temperature inside small (<1mm) aluminium packages in vacuum

A highly anticipated order!
I'm not the end user, but the lab was anxious to receive this item.

Unreliable
Have been using Omega TCs for 40 years. The last 3 orders of small (0.001 and 0.002 inch) diameter type S thermocouples have been unreliable. Products have arrived with wires crossed and junctions 4 to 6 times the wire diameter with what appears to be black soot on wires and bead. Not all, but a significant fraction of the TCs failed to correctly register temperature. OMEGA customer service dropped the ball on my inquiries.

What does "bare wire" mean? Are the individual wires completely bare or do they have individual electrical insulation? What I need to know is if I have to keep the pair of wires separated from each other all the way to the connector?
Please disregard AndrewA's answer, as it is incorrect. A thermocouple's measurement depends on a junction between two dissimilar metals and a temperature differential. Those two things create an emf along the entire wire, which is measured by a voltmeter and converted into temperature according to the data tables for whichever type of TC you're using.
If the two wires touch to form a *second* junction, you'll create a current loop from junction 1 (where your hot spot of interest is) and the touching point, nullifying that measurement. You'll effectively be measuring at the point closest to your voltmeter. Do NOT allow the bare wires to touch (not dangerous, but will give you erroneous readings).

Can these measure subzero temperatures as well?
Yes they bare wire Thermocouples can be used below 0C.

What is the best way to connect a fine thermocouple (Chal-002) to a data logger? or what is the best option for extending the wire?
Thank you for your inquiry Ayoub. We recommend that you use an SMPW male connector to attach the CHAL-002 wire to and then use a female connector to extend the run. The wire is so thin on the CHAL-002, you may need to "fold" it a few times for added support, getting it under the contact washer in the SMPW connector. But you need to realize that even, so, it is a fragile connection and much care needs to be taken not to break the wire. Please do not tighten the screw down too tight onto the wire. This can cause breakage also. Additionally, the type of extension you need depends on the data logger, you may need another male connector at the end of your run if the logger accepts a male connection- or just stripped end wire if it has terminal terminations.

Excuse me, CHAL-015-120, what does 120 mean?
Thank you for your inquiry. 120 is the length of the wire in inches.

Can the CHAL-010 measure below -100c?
All of our thermocouples are made with Special Limits of Error (SLE). Special Limits of Error Wire (SLE) made products are only spec’d out for temperatures above 32°F (0°C). So, anything below 32°F (0°C) does not comply with the SLE specification. We don't state an accuracy for SLE Wire-Made Products below 0°C (32°F). Accuracy testing shows it is no longer linear. We cannot certify or guarantee the accuracy for temperatures below 0 C. The CHAL-010 can still measure temperatures below 0 C but we cannot certify the accuracy. Also, due to the small diameter of this wire, at temperatures of -100 C the wire will become brittle to the point that any small movement may break the wire.

I have CHAL-005-BW thermocouples. How do I tell one end from the other?
Thank you for your inquiry Dan. One end of the thermocouple has the wires joined in the junction while the other side has the wires not join together. The junction side is the one that measures temperature.

What is the size of the welded joint in a T Type thermocouple of 36AWG?
Thank you for your inquiry. The diameter of the bead is approximately 2.5 times the diameter of each wire.

How many connection wires do the CHAL-010 Type K have? It is not clear in the product photos. I have previously purchased other "bare wire" Omega thermocouples and they had 3 wires which enabled me to solder/connect to an in-house wireless module.
Thank you for your inquiry. CHAL-010 has only 2 connection wires, Chromel (+) and Alumael (-)
