Thermobeads and
GCs (Chip-in-Glass)
Description
Applications
NTC Type AB6 thermistor assemblies consist of small
GC (chip-in-glass) or Thermobeads that are welded to
insulated extension leads. The Thermobeads or GC
(chip-in-glass) are hermetically sealed in glass and
have fine diameter 0.0007 in to 0.004 in (0.01778 mm
to 0.1016 mm) platinum alloy leads. The platinum leads
are cut short and welded to insulated extension leads
and the joints are covered in one of several insulation
types, depending upon the application or environment.
The assembly is then ready for insertion into
hypodermic needles, catheters or other small housings
that require extended leads. Any of the Thermobeads
or GC (chip-in-glass) listed in Table I may be used in
a NTC Type AB6 assembly. Please consult the data
shown for specific electrical or mechanical properties
for the thermistor selected.
Thermobead and GC (chip-in-glass) assemblies are
used where the small thermistor must be further
connected to longer leads, for insertion into deep
wells and cavities, or threading into long tubes. They
may also be used, as is, for applications that require
fast response measure-ments in confined spaces.
With these assemblies, the fast response of the small
thermistor is available without sacrificing ease of
insertion. The added leads and insulation allow the
minute assemblies to be handled in further assembly
operations, such as insertion into catheter lumens.
The same electrical characteristics that apply to the
selected thermistor (resistance value, resistance ratio,
stability) are unaltered in the assembly.
