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.
