Type K Surface Thermometer Probe – Sper Scientific Direct
The primary difference between Type J and Type K thermocouples is the measuring range, and the sensitivity. Type K is the most common general-purpose thermocouple with a sensitivity of approximately 41 µV/°C. A wide variety of probes are available in its −50°C to +900°C / -58°F to +1652°F range. Type K wire color standard is yellow (+) and red (-). Type J has a more restricted range of −50 to +400°C, but higher sensitivity of about 50 µV/°C. Type J wire color standard is white (+) and red (-). Specifications Surface Type Application Temperature Range Dimensions K Hard to access areas -30 to 480ºC -22 to 896ºF Handle Length: 5.5" (140 mm) Probe Length: 8" (203 mm) Probe Diam:13 mm Cord Length: 38".
