Visit General
Purpose Thermocouple Probes to choose integral-handle thermocouple probes
with 5-ft. coiled cables or 10-ft. straight cables (some probes
are available with coiled cable only). Coiled cables have
mini-connector plugs for quick attachments. Straight cables have
stripped-end probe leads, which attach to mini- or standard
connectors or screw-terminal instruments. Use spade lugs for good
connections when attaching straight cable probe leads to screw
terminals. Use the spade lug that matches the metal wire in your
probe lead.
Each probe is equipped with a durable 5-1/2" long glass-filled
polypropylene handle. Strain relief spring on handle protects the
cable connection against damage due to flexing and tugging. Cables
feature PVC/PVC insulation and are ANSI color-coded for easy
identification: Type J cables are black, Type K are yellow, Type T
are blue, and Type E are purple.
Each probe has a characteristic time constant (response time).
Five time constants are needed to reach 99% of final reading. For
example, a probe with a time constant of 5 seconds reaches its
final reading in about 25 seconds. See descriptions for the time
constant of each probe. |
