Hand Held Surface Thermocouple Probes (Type 5)

We offer a wide range of hand held surface thermocouple probes to suit a variety of surface temperature measurement applications. Depending on the thermocouple type, these probes can be supplied with a 1, 2, 5 or 10 metre (extended) coiled lead and a miniature flat pin plug which makes them suitable for all our hand held indicators as well as most other brands of indicators. They can also be connected to other instrumentation by using extension cable and the appropriate connectors.

Style	Description	Tip Image
BB	Spring Loaded Surface Probe This sensor has a ribbon style butt welded sensing tip which allows a fast response when placed upon a solid surface. The tip is rated to 400°C and the handle to 135°C. Sheath: 6.35mm dia x 165mm long (from handle to tip)
CC	Heavy Duty Spring Loaded Surface Probe A robust version of style 5BB with a larger butt welded ribbon junction. Whilst stronger, the response time is slightly slower; however, in most applications it is perfectly acceptable. The tip is rated to 400°C and the handle to 135°C.
DD	Spring Loaded Surface Probe with 90º Bend As style 5BB, but the sensing tip is positioned at a right angle for difficult to reach applications. The tip is rated to 400°C and the handle to 135°C. Sheath: 6.35mm dia x 195mm long (140mm to start of bend).
EE	Heavy Duty Spring Loaded Surface Probe with 90º Bend A robust version of style 5CC with a larger butt welded ribbon junction. Whilst stronger, the response time is slightly slower; however, in most applications it is perfectly acceptable. The tip is rated to 400°C and the handle to 135°C.
