Ready-to-Use Thermocouple: K type (Ni-Cr/Ni-Al) 170mm (6.7") Length with Ceramic Sheath - EQ-TC-K-17

Features:

• K type thermocouple probe for measuring high heat applications at temperature up to 1250^oC
• Suitable for room temperature - 1250^oC series furnaces, such as the KSL-1200X Muffle Furnace
  
• Ceramic end holder with screws to connect thermocouple to a temperature controller

Specifications: Length:                        170mm,  (6.7") Diameter of sheath:       8 mm, high purity Alumina  Positive Material:           Nickel-Chromium Negative Material:          Nickel-Aluminum Wire diameter:               1.5 mm  Lowest Temperature:     -200 oC Highest Temperature:    1250  oC Minimum Std. Error:      +/- 2.2  oC

Application Note:

• If necessary, please check out K type thermocouple extension wire with mini male plug. Using compensating wires is equivalent to stretching them to keep them operating at a constant temperature. The advantages of using compensating cables are saving material costs and solving the problem of constant temperature, etc.
  
• There are 2 polarities for K type thermocouple: positive and negative. Please check polarity of K type thermocouple before use. Wrong polarity may cause temperature measuring error.
• It is also easy to test the polarity of K type thermocouples. The negative wire is MORE magnetic than the positive wire. Just put a magnet up to each wire. One will be more magnetic than the other.
