ZP - Screen Printed Thermocouples
In the adjacent image is a screen printed thermocouple from ZP for the measurement of temperature. These hybrid K-Type and T-Type thermocouples are made within ZP ISO13485 facility.
We have defined these thermocouples as a hybrid between a K-Type and a T-Type, as they have the sensitivity of 60 microV/degC, but also have a temperature range beyond a standard K-Type.
These thermocouple sensors are made with the same care as our screen printed electrodes and biosensors.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
- Each die has two junctions, either can be used for temperature sensing.
- Place the junction inside what where you want to sense the temperature, and make sure the connector pads are sitting at a constant temperature
- Connect using the ZP edge connector
- Measure the voltage between the middle pad and either of the edge pad. Measure between middle and left to address the middle junction, or middle and right to address the distant junction. Use a precision voltage meter for this.
- The junctions will generate a voltage proportional to the temperature difference between the contact pads and the junction
