the THERMORECEPTOR responds to changes in the temperature
different measurement of temperature
A thermocouple is a temperature sensor made from two different types of metal. Different metal types give different sensing properties and ranges. Several standard pairs of metals are defined in industry and designated by a letter. A copper-constantan thermocouple is "Type T."
Thermocouple elements are temperature sensors that are useful over a wide range of temperatures. They are used with thermocouple temperature probes, bimetallic devices that are suitable for various temperature sensing applications.
You must use thermocouple wire (of the same type as the thermocouple) to extend the circuit. If you switch to a different wire the point of connection between the two becomes a thermocouple junction itself, and the resulting voltage from that junction will skew your reading. You can use any wire to extend a thermocouple connection if you know the temperature of the junction where the thermocouple wire ends--this becomes the reference junction.

Thermistor digitals generally have "built in" probes and sensors. They must be calibrated during the manufacturing process and so are not interchangeable. Thermocouple digitals, with some exceptions, can accept any matching category of probe (the two most common are K-type and T-type--these have different temperature ranges). We concentrate on K-type only, since this type spans all food application temperatures, and has more availability of probe options. Accuracy can be very good with both types, but thermistor digitals are limited to the type of built-in probe they come with, and if the probe breaks, you have to buy a new thermometer. Thermocouple digital thermometers are generally very predictable in their quality, and the response characteristics of their fitted probes is within a very narrow range. All QA stocks the highest quality thermocouple digital thermometers, so they can be used with high confidence. Thermistor digitals are made worldwide, and can have variable quality, if not carefully checked. All QA performs checks of all of their thermistor-based products to ensure that their customers are getting products of excellent quality. Our line of thermistor products represents the very best available at the price.
the THERMORECEPTOR responds to changes in the temperature
A thermocouple is two different metals in contact with each other that generate a voltage when heated.
Someone can purchase thermocouple wires from a number of online retailers such as amazon. Amazon has a large selection of thermocouple wires from a number of different manufacturers.
The thermocouple is a sensore used to measure temperature. The thermocouple are made with two wires of different metals. joined together at one end to from a junction the thermocouple outputs in a a Milli volts .

A thermistor is a temperature measuring device which acts like a temperature sensitive resistor. It is an active device that requires a current flow to measure its resistance so that the temperature may be calculated and/or displayed. A thermocouple is a device composed of two dissimilar metals fused together. An electrical potential occurs across the junction of the metals. As the potential is influenced by the temperature of the metal junction the output voltage can be measured and calibrated to show the temperature at the joint. Both devices may be employed to measure the temperature within a fixed space, or on a probe to measure the temperature at a remote point or points.
Temperature can be measured using a thermometer, infrared thermometer, thermocouple, thermistor, or a temperature probe.
No, an electric heater and a thermocouple serve different functions. An electric heater generates heat through electrical resistance, while a thermocouple detects temperature changes and generates electrical signals based on those changes. They work in different ways to either produce heat (electric heater) or measure temperature (thermocouple).
