5.1.4 Thermocouple Conditioning and Preparation
1. Use a calibrated thermocouple as specified in Table 5.
2. Measure the thermocouple resistance by holding both wires on one probe and the
tip of the thermocouple to the other probe of the DMM (compare to thermocouple
resistance specifications).
3. Straighten the wire for about 38 mm (1½") from the bead to place it inside the
channel.
4. Bend the tip of the thermocouple to approximately a 45 degree angle by 0.8 mm
(0.030") from the tip (Figure 8).
5.1.5 Thermocouple Attachment to IHS
Caution: To avoid impact on the thermocouple during the SMT process, reflow must be
performed before attaching the thermocouple to the grooved MCH IHS.
1. Clean the thermocouple wire groove with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and a lint-free
cloth removing all residue prior to thermocouple attachment.
