Type K, Sheathed Thermocouples with Over moulded Standard Connector
Type K Thermocouples is a device which measures temperatures, its 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.

Typical Applications
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.
In some typical applications, where more than one thermocouple connects to an associated instrumentation it could be essential to incorporate insulation – this is to avoid spurious signals occurring in the measuring circuits.
Types of Thermocouples
Type K Thermocouples: Type K is one of the most common types of thermocouple. Theyre popular due to their low cost, the Type K are accurate, provide reliability and have a wide temperature range.
Type J Thermocouples: Type J is also very common and widely known for their low cost, good performance and reliability. Can hold its own in higher temperature ranges, but this can shorten its lifespan.
