EMBEDDING PROCEDURE
1. Drill a 1.5 mm (.059 inch) hole just past the tinned end of the soldering tip (approximately 6.35 mm
(.25 inch) when using one of the recommended PACE tips). Drill to a depth of 2.54 mm (.100 inch).
2. Place the end of the thermocouple wire into the hole. Ensure that the end of the wire bottoms out in
the hole.
3. Wedge the thermocouple into place using the copper wedge or bare copper wire. The thermocouple
should be wedged as air tight as possible.
