NM0325205

Type “K” Stainless Steel Thermocouple Probe - 1/8” Diameter Sheath, 12 Ft Lead Wire, with Male Plug (Part # 25205, by ehs-hotfoil)

This Type “K” Thermocouple Probe, identified by Part # 25205 (as specified by the user from ehs-hotfoil), is a versatile and robust temperature sensing device. While specific publicly available details for this exact part number from ehs-hotfoil are limited, the probe's general specifications indicate a common and effective configuration for industrial and commercial temperature measurement. It features a durable stainless steel sheath and a generous 12-foot (approximately 3.66 meters) lead wire terminated with a standard male plug, making it suitable for accurate and reliable temperature monitoring in various applications.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Type K Thermocouple: Utilizes Chromel-Alumel (NiCr-NiAl) alloys, making it one of the most widely used and versatile thermocouple types. It offers a broad temperature range, good linearity, and dependable performance.

• Durable Stainless Steel Sheath: The probe's 1/8-inch (3.175 mm) diameter sheath is typically constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel (e.g., 304 SS or 316 SS). This provides excellent protection for the thermocouple junction against harsh chemicals, moisture, and mechanical abrasion, ensuring durability in demanding environments.

• Slim 1/8” Diameter: The slender 1/8-inch (3.175 mm) diameter allows for relatively fast thermal response times and facilitates insertion into small openings, thermowells, or processes where space is limited.

• Extended 12-Foot Lead Wire: The long 12-foot (3.66 meter) lead wire provides ample reach, allowing the probe to be positioned accurately while the monitoring instrument or data logger can be located at a convenient distance. (Note: This length typically refers to the flexible insulated lead wire connected to a shorter rigid sheath probe).

• Standard Male Plug Termination: Equipped with a standard male thermocouple plug (commonly a miniature or standard size type), ensuring easy and secure connection to compatible temperature controllers, indicators, data loggers, and other thermocouple reading devices.

• Reliable Temperature Measurement: Designed to deliver consistent and accurate temperature readings across its specified range, essential for effective process control, monitoring, and safety protocols.

Typical Specifications (based on common industry standards for such a probe):

• Manufacturer: ehs-hotfoil (As specified by user)

• Part Number: 25205 (Specific to user's request)

• Thermocouple Type: K (Chromel-Alumel)

• Sheath Material: Stainless Steel (e.g., 304 SS or 316 SS)

• Sheath Diameter: 1/8 inch (3.175 mm)

• Sheath Length: Typically a shorter rigid length (e.g., 6 inches, 12 inches, 24 inches), fused to the lead wire.

• Lead Wire Length: 12 feet (approx. 3.66 meters)

• Junction Type: (Commonly Grounded for fast response, but could be Ungrounded or Exposed depending on application and manufacturer standard)

• Connector Type: Male Thermocouple Plug (e.g., ANSI standard miniature or standard size)

• Temperature Range: (Typical for Type K with SS Sheath: −200∘C to 1100∘C / −328∘F to 2012∘F. Maximum continuous use temperature for SS sheaths is usually lower, e.g., up to 900∘C / 1650∘F for 304 SS).

• Accuracy: Standard Limits of Error (e.g., ±2.2∘C or ±0.75% of reading, whichever is greater, according to ANSI MC96.1/ASTM E230).

• Insulation: (e.g., compacted Magnesium Oxide (MgO) within the sheath, PFA or Fiberglass for lead wire insulation).

• Compliance: Generally conforms to ANSI/ASTM E230 (for thermocouple color codes and temperature-EMF tables).

Typical Applications:

• Temperature monitoring in industrial ovens, furnaces, and kilns.

• Process control within various industries, including chemical, petrochemical, and manufacturing.

• HVAC systems and environmental chambers.

• Food and beverage processing and storage.

• Laboratory testing, research, and development.

• General temperature sensing in liquid, gas, or solid media where high accuracy and durability are required.
