Description
Fast-response surface probe TC type K is a thermocouple surface temperature sensor equipped with a thermocouple ribbon that delivers a short response time and permits reliable contact on non-planar surfaces. The probe covers a very wide measuring range and is therefore suited to many industrial and building-services tasks. Typical applications include locating cold bridges on walls, maintenance and inspection of machinery, process monitoring of production steps, adjustment of heating systems (radiators, pipes and boilers), and routine quality-control checks. Supplied as one complete probe with a net weight of 0,168 kg, the instrument is ready for immediate use with compatible type-K measuring devices. The ribbon design maintains good thermal contact even on curved or slightly uneven surfaces, improving measurement confidence in everyday service work. Manufactured by Testo, this surface probe offers a practical solution for technicians who need fast, repeatable surface-temperature readings across diverse materials and geometries. Its robust construction supports repeated field deployment while remaining light enough for one-handed operation during inspections and commissioning.

Questions about Fast-action surface probe (TC type K)
What is this article?
Fast-action surface probe (TC type K) is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Testo for laboratory use. It sits in Temperature probes & sensors, inside Temperature measurement, in Lab instruments.
A temperature probe is the sensor, Pt100, thermocouple or thermistor, that a meter or a logger reads. The probe, not the display, is what is calibrated. The sheath material and the response time matter in a liquid versus a block.
A thermometer reports a temperature. A liquid-in-glass thermometer is a calibrated column. A digital thermometer is a sensor and a display, and the sensor, not the display, is what is calibrated. An infrared thermometer reads a surface and depends on emissivity. A data logger stores the reading over time. Without a stated uncertainty and a calibration point, the number is only an indication. The scale is maintained by the BIPM and compared by EURAMET. Accreditation is BELAC.
Which category should I open next?
