RS PRO Type K Thermocouple 500mm Length, 4.5mm Diameter → +1200°C

Type K Thermocouples is a device which measures temperatures, it’s made up from two wires which are different materials. When these two wires are joined together, they create an electrical junction. Once the temperature changes at this junction, it created a voltage which can then be interpreted and read as a temperature. This is commonly known as the “Seebeck Effect”.

• Hot junction underground

• This Type K Industrial Mineral Probe with an underground junction is suitable for corrosive media, although the thermal response tends to be slower than others.

• Type K Thermocouples: Type K is one of the most common types of thermocouple. They’re popular due to their low cost, the Type K are accurate, provide reliability and have a wide temperature range.
