Thermocouple Type-K Glass Braid Insulated - K Adafruit 270

Thermocouple Type-K Glass Braid Insulated - K Adafruit 270

Thermocouples are best used for measuring temperatures that can go above 100 °C. This is a bare wires bead-probe which can measure air or surface temperatures. Most inexpensive thermocouples have a vinyl covering which can melt at around 200 °C, this one uses a fiberglass braid so it can be used in high temperature measurements such as heaters and ovens. There`s a small piece of heat shrink on the end to keep the fiberglass from fraying. If you`re using at >250°C temperatures, simply remove it with a small blade.

• K type thermocouple with glass over-braiding
• Good up to 500 °C (900 °F)!
• Color-coded wires
• 1 meter long (a little more than 3 feet)
• Best used with a thermocouple amplifier such as the MAX31855, AD8495 or MAX31856

We have a handy tutorial which covers thermocouple use including an Arduino library and example code!

Please note: we seem to have gotten a few thermocouples that have the red&yellow wires color-coded wrong. It will not damage the thermocouple or sensor if the wires are connected backwards, but temperature readings will go the `wrong way` so if you find that the temperature is dropping when you heat up the sensor, try flipping the wires!
