Penetration Probe for Air Liquid Semi-Solids
The Cooper Atkins 50209-K is a Type K thermocouple probe built to measure temperature in air, liquid and semi-solid materials. Its 3/16 inch by 3 1/2 inch shaft suits penetration tasks in food service, HVAC and industrial environments. The probe connects via a mini plug and operates from -100 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit or -73 to 260 degrees Celsius.
Coiled Cable Extends to 48 Inches
Installation is straightforward: insert the probe tip into the medium and plug the mini connector into a compatible Type K meter. The 12 inch coiled cable stretches to 48 inches when extended, giving flexibility without excess slack. The main mistake is forcing the mini plug into a non-Type K input, which prevents a reading or damages the jack.
Verify Meter Accepts Type K Mini Plug
Before ordering, confirm that your thermometer or data logger accepts a Type K thermocouple with a mini plug connector. The probe is not compatible with instruments that require a standard-size plug or a different thermocouple type. No other interface or calibration standard is supported by this model.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the probe reads correctly after connecting it to my meter?
Connect the mini plug to a Type K thermometer, place the tip in a stable temperature source and verify the display changes smoothly across the -100 to 500 °F range.
What comes with the probe and what must I supply separately?
The probe includes a 3/16 in by 3 1/2 in tip, 12 in coiled cable extending to 48 in, and a mini plug; you must provide a compatible Type K thermometer or data logger.
Which version suits air, liquid and semi-solid use?
This single 50209-K model is specified for air, liquid and semi-solid applications with a Type K mini plug and the stated temperature range.
