|    Copper-constantan thermocouple.    |

      Anyone worked with copper-constantan thermouples? How are the two       wires joined?              A dry bath heats a block of aluminum which has holes to receive test       tubes. Temperature is controlled by a Cal Controls # 3200. The       heating pad heats when power is applied but the relay in the 3200       never switches. So I wonder whether the fault is in the 3200 or the       thermocouple.              Can heat the thermocouple and measure voltage across the two wires.       https://its90.nist.gov/downloadFiles/type_t.tab.txt       Not sure a common multimeter has the precision to detect a faulty       thermocouple.              Ideas?              Thx, ...
