Thermocouple | 800°C Stainless Probe | NPT 1/2 Thread

This K-type thermocouple measures high temperatures in tough factory environments. Its stainless steel probe works up to 800°C. The 1/2" NPT fitting installs easily into standard ports. This threaded temperature sensor works well for boilers, furnaces, and kilns. Features and Benefits - K-type thermocouple element - It covers a wide temperature range and reacts quicker than many PT100 sensors. - 1/2" NPT threaded mount - It screws into standard fittings for a firm, sealed connection in pipes and tanks. - Stainless steel probe body - The probe material resists rust and oxidation at high temperatures, which makes it last longer. - Liquid-tight build - The waterproof sensor design keeps internal wires safe from moisture in boilers or liquid systems. Applications - Checking flue gas temperatures in furnaces, boilers, and exhaust systems. - Measuring process heat in chemical reactors and factory ovens. - Controlling temperature for PID controllers in heat treatment and metal forging. What It Is This is a K Type Thermocouple with an 800°C Stainless Probe. It is designed for accurate temperature measurement across a wide range, from 0 to 800°C. The probe material is stainless steel, ensuring durability in various environments. It features an NPT 1/2 thread for secure installation and is a standalone product, not a semi-finished component. This thermocouple does not include a battery and uses a PT100 sensor type. Key Uses & Applications This K Type Thermocouple is suitable for applications requiring precise temperature monitoring up to 800°C. Its stainless steel probe makes it ideal for use in industrial processes, ovens, kilns, and other high-temperature environments where corrosion resistance is important. It can be integrated with a display gauge or temperature controller to provide real-time temperature readings. The NPT 1/2 thread allows for secure and reliable fitting in compatible systems. How to Choose When selecting a thermocouple, consider the required temperature range; this product handles 0-800°C. The probe material, in this case stainless steel, is important for durability in the intended environment. The thread type, NPT 1/2, must match your existing setup. For specific applications like a water heater, ensure the thermocouple type (K Type) and temperature range are appropriate. If replacing a gas fireplace thermocouple, check the length and connection type required by the appliance. Grit / Spec Guide This thermocouple features a stainless steel probe with a K Type sensor, capable of measuring temperatures from 0-800°C. The NPT 1/2 thread ensures a secure fit. It is a PT100 sensor type. This product is a complete thermocouple and not a semi-finished item. There is no battery included with this unit. The robust stainless steel construction of the probe is designed for longevity in demanding conditions. Care & Safety To maintain the lifespan of this thermocouple, avoid bending the stainless steel probe excessively. Ensure the lead and connector are free from damage. When cleaning a water heater thermocouple, gently wipe away any soot or mineral deposits from the probe; never use abrasive materials. For safety, always disconnect power before installing or replacing a thermocouple, especially when working with gas appliances like a fireplace. Ensure the NPT 1/2 thread is properly sealed during installation.
