Description
Robust air temperature probe, thermocouple type K, with fixed extended cable 1,2 m is a fast-response sensor for ambient and process air measurements. Simply hold the probe in the air stream under test; the exposed sensor inside the probe tube delivers the air-temperature reading after only a short response time. To refine the result, the probe can be moved through the air at approximately 1,5 m/s, improving convective heat transfer to the sensing junction. The rugged construction is intended for straightforward everyday use in industrial, laboratory and service environments where reliable type-K air readings are required. A permanently attached, extended cable of 1,2 m keeps the measuring instrument clear of the measurement zone while still allowing convenient positioning of the probe. This air temperature probe from manufacturer Testo is supplied as a single unit and pairs with compatible type-K measuring instruments. Its combination of exposed-junction speed, mechanical robustness and fixed cable length makes it a practical choice for HVAC checks, climate-chamber monitoring, process-air verification and general laboratory temperature surveys.

Questions about Robust air temperature probe (TC type K)
What is this article?
Robust air temperature 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?
The category is Temperature measurement. The sub-category is Temperature probes & sensors. The catalogue is Lab instruments.
Shelves beside this one are Laboratory glass thermometers, Hygrometers & humidity meters, Data loggers, Temperature measurement accessories, Digital thermometers and Infrared thermometers.
What should I check before I order?
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
