80PK-1
WARNING
TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK, DO NOT USE THIS PROBE
WHEN VOLTAGES EXCEEDING 24V AC RMS OR 60V DC ARE
PRESENT. THE PROBE TIP IS ELECTRICALLY CONNECTED
TO THE OUTPUT TERMINALS.
INTRODUCTION
The 80PK-1 is a Type K Bead Thermocouple designed for
general purpose temperature measuring applications. It has an
extremely fast response time, due to the low thermal mass of the
exposed tip. The 40-inch (1-meter) Teflon cable is terminated with
a Type K miniature thermocouple connector with 0.312-inch
(0.792-mm) pin spacing. The 80PK-1 can be used with any
temperature measuring instrument that is designed to accept
Type K thermocouples and that has a miniature connector input.
The 80PK-1 must be used in Teflon-compatible environments and
is not suitable for liquid immersion. Above 260
°
C (500
°
F), Teflon
will emit toxic fumes.
