Large Type K Immersion Thermometer Probe

Large Type K Immersion Thermometer Probe

The Sper Scientific 800061 Large Type K Immersion Thermometer Probe is engineered for precision and durability, making it an indispensable tool for a wide range of industrial, laboratory, and food service applications where accurate temperature measurements in liquids and semi-solids are crucial.

This probe utilizes a Type K thermocouple, which is renowned as the most common and versatile general-purpose thermocouple. It offers an impressive temperature measurement range of -50°C to +900°C (-58°F to +1652°F), making it suitable for both extremely cold and high-heat environments. With a sensitivity of approximately 41 µV/°C, the Type K probe provides reliable and consistent readings. The standard wire color coding for Type K is yellow for the positive lead and red for the negative lead, ensuring easy identification and proper connection.

While Type J thermocouples have a higher sensitivity (about 50 µV/°C) and a more restricted range of -50°C to +400°C, the Type K's broader operational spectrum and robust construction make it the preferred choice for a vast array of demanding tasks.
