Type B thermocouple waya imhando yetembiricha sensor iri chikamu chemhuri ye thermocouple, inozivikanwa nekukwira kwayo tembiricha nekugadzikana. Inoumbwa newaya mbiri dzakasiyana dzesimbi dzakabatanidzwa pamwe chete kune imwe mugumo, kazhinji yakagadzirwa neplatinamu-rhodium alloys. Kana iri Type B thermocouples, waya imwe inoumbwa ne70% platinum uye 30% rhodium (Pt70Rh30), nepo imwe waya yakagadzirwa ne94% platinum uye 6% rhodium (Pt94Rh6). Type B thermocouples dzakagadzirirwa kuyera tembiricha yepamusoro, kubva pa0°C kusvika 1820°C (32°F kusvika 3308°F). Iwo anowanzo shandiswa mumashandisirwo akadai sechoto cheindasitiri, kilns, uye yakakwirira-tembiricha murabhoritari kuyedza. Nekuda kwekunyatsobatanidzwa kwezvinhu zvinoshandiswa, Type B thermocouples inopa kugadzikana kwakanyanya uye nekurongeka, kunyanya pakupisa kwakanyanya. Aya ma thermocouples anosarudzwa mumamiriro ezvinhu apo kunyanya kwepamusoro kunodiwa, kunyange zvazvo achidhura kupfuura mamwe marudzi e thermocouples. Kurongeka kwavo uye kugadzikana kwavo kunoita kuti vakwanise kukumbira zvikumbiro mumaindasitiri akadai seaerospace, mota, uye simbi.
