Hi Phil,
I guess I'm what you call a "Bozo". I use Kapton tape quite often when I do
my profiling. I however, don't cover the thermocouple tip with it, but just
use it to secure the wires.
My thermocouple tip is shaped and placed with tweezers to be at the solder
joint I want to monitor,and then the wire is secured along the assembly at
places so as not to disturb the rest of the components. The thermocouple tip
isn't covered by anything...high temp solder, epoxy, aluminum tape, or anything.
Just because I use Kapton tape, doesn't mean that I'm a "Bozo"...
-Steve Gregory-
According to Dr. Zapfardt in the October issue of Circuits Assembly ("On The
Forefront")attaching the TC with Kapton tape is for bozos who really are not
interested in actually getting accurate profiles, but are just killing time.
I couldn't have said it better myself.
