HVAC Pipe Clamp Thermocouple
The Tempco MTA01183 is a Type J pipe clamp thermocouple designed for HVAC control systems. It fits pipe diameters from 7/8 to 1 1/2 inches and provides reliable temperature sensing for heating and cooling equipment.
Grounded Junction With Standard Plug
The grounded junction delivers fast response times by placing the sensing element in direct contact with the probe sheath. A standard plug ensures compatibility with common HVAC controllers and data loggers without requiring special adapters or wiring harnesses.
32 to 300 Degrees F Operating Range
This thermocouple operates from 32 degrees to 300 degrees Fahrenheit, covering typical HVAC supply and return air temperatures. Systems requiring measurement above 300 degrees F or below freezing need a different sensor specification.

Questions about this item
Will the grounded Type K junction need periodic recalibration after repeated thermal cycles?
The grounded junction is built for continuous duty up to 1260 °C; no scheduled recalibration interval is defined by the manufacturer.
What temperature ceiling stops the probe from reading higher during prolonged exposure?
The upper limit is 1260 °C (2300 °F); sustained operation beyond that point will exceed the sensor's rated range.
How much heat does the 3/16 in sheath add to a duct when the probe runs all day?
The slender sheath contributes negligible thermal mass, so it does not measurably raise duct temperature during continuous use.
