TEMPERATURE SENSOR

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a temperature sensor with a thermocouple, which includes the following consecutive steps: a) manufacturing a cable with mineral insulator (14) including two thermocouple wires (10, 12) extending along the entire length of the cable with mineral insulator and embedded in a mineral insulator (8); b) stripping one of the ends of the cable with mineral insulator over a length of 2 to 20 mm, preferably less than 15 mm, preferably less than 10 mm, such as to expose the ends of the thermocouple wires; c) connecting the ends (40, 42) of the thermocouple wires thus exposed, such as to constitute a thermocouple hot spot (13); and d) attaching a cap (20) to said cable with mineral insulator so as to protect said hot spot.
