Value Brand Surface Temp Probe Type K 32 to 500 F

SKU CH-GZAD-7F9T8

Surface temperature probe, Type K, ungrounded, measures 32 to 500 °F with a 3 ft 3 in cable and mini plug

  • Product typeEnvironmental & Mechanical
  • Wide 32 to 500 °F range covers many tasks
  • Type K thermocouple works with standard meters
  • Ungrounded tip gives faster surface response
  • 3 ft 3 in cable allows flexible positioning
  • Mini plug connects directly to compatible instruments

Surface Temperature Probe Type K

This Type K thermocouple measures surface temperatures from 32 to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. It uses an ungrounded junction with a mini plug and includes a cable length of 3 feet 3 inches. The probe suits automotive and general electrical testing where surface contact is required.

For surface testing only

Technicians needing to measure air or surface temperatures within the stated range will find this probe suitable. It is not intended for immersion in liquids or for applications requiring a grounded junction. Users who need higher temperature limits or different connector types should consider other probes.

Type K ungrounded thermocouple

The ungrounded Type K construction isolates the sensing element from the probe sheath to reduce electrical interference. This design influences response time and compatibility with specific instruments. Confirm that your meter accepts Type K mini plugs before purchase.

Questions about this item

How do I install the Type K surface probe and what step is commonly missed?

Connect the mini plug to a compatible Type K thermometer ensuring correct polarity; the step often missed is verifying the meter is set for Type K before taking readings.

What maintenance or replacement will the probe need over time?

The ungrounded thermocouple junction and cable insulation are rated to 500 °F; replace the probe if the cable shows heat damage or the tip becomes corroded.

What limit appears first during sustained high-temperature use?

Continuous exposure at the 500 °F upper limit will degrade the cable insulation before the thermocouple junction fails.
