TK Sensors and Thermocouples

• At Thermo-Kinetics, we manufacture custom sensors, tooling rakes, and harness and cable assemblies. These are all required to determine critical temperature and pressure measurements in the testing and manufacturing of aircraft and helicopter jet engines.
• T-PAK® mineral insulated thermocouples are used extensively when accurate fuel, compressor, inlet air, oil, exhaust, and gas temperatures and pressures are required.
• Our sensors are also crucial in autoclave, atmospheric and vacuum furnaces used in heat treatment, carbon composite curing, plastic thermoforming, paint, and specialty coatings.
• Secondary suppliers to the aerospace industry use our custom sensors in landing gear, structural components, and heat treating applications, to name a few. We also supply thousands of feet of thermocouple grade and extension grade wire to Aerospace annually, in addition to bulk mineral insulated, metal sheathed thermocouple cable.

Partnered Solutions

The same customers that need our manufactured sensors, also require instrumentation from the leading manufacturers we represent:

• Honeywell – controllers (standard & hybrid), recorders (paper & video), transmitters (pressure, flow and level), wireless transmitters, actuators, and analytical instrumentation are used by our aerospace customers to provide the demanding control, documentation and analysis required by the industry.
• Ametek Land’s infrared solutions are also provided for furnaces, ovens and kilns to determine process temperatures. Thermal imaging is also used by the industry.
• Lenox borescopes are used in manufacturing, repair and overhaul of engines, landing gear and fuselage.
