4 Channel K Type Digital Thermometer Thermocouple-200~1372°C/2501°F Sensor

Excelente producto

A really nice instrument for the modest price. Calibration is not traceable to NIST or any other standard I am aware of. It works fine for candy making, baking, brewing, smoking, grilling, incubators, and refrigerant measurements. Which are the uses I need it for. If you are trying to prove net energy release from tabletop cold fusion, maybe get something calibrated to a recognized standard. Comes with four basic type "K" bare bead thermocouples. The supplied thermocouples have polymer insulation, so not great for much above 230 degrees F. for extended periods. The supplied thermocouples do work fine for refrigerant line measurements. I bought inexpensive bare bead thermocouples with ceramic insulation, that easily withstand my 550 degree bread oven. A probe with a pointed stainless steel tube is nice for grilling, and similar baking, brewing, type purposes where you insert it. One problem will miniature type K, thermocouple connectors (The little 2-pin yellow plugs) is they tend to get lose with use, especially if you accidentally force one into the receptacle backwards. Nice handy instrument, with a quality look and feel.

I have two sensors together. They sense different temps. Using a probe that is water proof the water freezes at 0°C fine. The same water boils at 92 on one probe and 98 on the other. Rolling boil shoild be 100° Mash temp for beer at 152 using a calibrated thermometer reads 152. This junk reads 150 and 146 on two probes litterallu tied together If I turn it off for a minute but keep probes in place at a stable temp when you turn it back on they read more than 30°C out then takes 15 minutes to get close but never gets to the actual temp. There seems to be no means to calibrate either

Not happy on this product, second time trying, new batteries but for some reason these numbers are right off T1 says 7.3°C but it’s in -10°C solution and I know it’s -10 from the PLC T4 is in a hotter solution my PLc says it’s 57.2°C not 43.7°C, Not happy please email me this is unacceptable!!

In several reviews of this product, people are complaining about poor accuracy. What people fail to realize is that accuracy is a function of the thermocouple you are using, and NOT the thermocouple reader. All a thermocouple reader does is convert the voltage across the thermocouple to a temperature reading. If the thermocouple isn't producing an accurate voltage, then you are going to get an inaccurate temperature reading. If you want highly accurate results, put your money into a high quality thermocouple probe. But using a cheap reader like this is just fine. In fact, you can make your own highly accurate thermocouple reader with an Arduino and a few parts. The magic sauce for accuracy is the actual probe. You can turn off the auto-power-off function of this reader, which is very convenient. This is a decent quality four channel reader that supports several different probe types at a reasonable cost. I've been using mine for a bit over a month now with zero complaints.
