The Tekneka Type K Granular Wire Temperature Probe is a thermocouple probe that uses a thin thermocouple alloy wire (Chromel-Alumel) for highly accurate temperature measurement. The wire is introduced into a ceramic or metal bead, which is then introduced into the material or medium whose temperature is being measured.
The temperature probe manufactured by Tekneka can measure temperatures up to 350°C and is widely used in industrial and laboratory environments. They can survive harsh environments and are also extremely tough and corrosion-resistant. The Tekneka Type K probe is used in a variety of applications, including furnace monitoring, heat treatment, and process control, and comes in a variety of sizes (1.5 and 5 meters).
