## **DATA SHEET** 

## **KP05  TYPE ‘K’ NEEDLE PROBE** 

## **Needle Probes  -  3.3 mm Type ‘K’** 

## Description 

This probe uses the bulbous handle to enable the sensor tip to be pushed into a semi-solid product with maximum ease of use. 

## Construction 

Needle Probe 3.3mm Diameter by 100mm Long : Stainless Steel 316 (Food Grade) 2M curly polyurethane cable with moulded connector.   Complete waterproof assembly. 

## **Sensor Features** 

## � **TOTAL ENCAPSULATION TECHNIQUE FOR MAXIMUM STRENGTH AND DURABILITY.** 

This results in a solid handle as opposed to a hollow handle.  This is particularly important as there is often damage to the handles caused by excess heat.  With a hollow handle it is possible to puncture the outer plastic and damage the sensor irreparably. 

## � **WATERPROOF HANDLE** 

Due to the total encapsulation method used, all TME probe handles are completely waterproof. 

## � **TOUGH POLYURETHANE CABLE** 

- Polyurethane cables are used in place of the standard polyurethane for the following reasons :- 

- Greater retractability 

- Enhanced memory of it’s curl 

- Non–Toxic 

- Greater mechanical strength for durability 

- 12 X 0.2mm wires used internally for greater strength. 

- PTFE inner insulation for strength and retractability. 

## � **HIGH ACCURACY THERMOCOUPLE MATERIAL THROUGHOUT** 

Type ‘K’ Thermocouple : Class I     (±1.5°C ±0.5%) 

## � **POLYPROPYLENE  HANDLES** 

Polypropylene is an extremely tough and durable material, commonly used for milk crates, it has good low temperature performance and a relatively high melt temperature.  It performs exceptionally well under chemical attack. 

## � **WIDE AMBIENT TEMPERATURE SPECIFICATION** 

- **TIME RESPONSE** _**(96%of value in water)**_ 

- **MEASUREMENT RANGE** 

**: -30 TO 50 °C : 1.6 Secs : -100 TO 250 °C**
