See Table 6 for a list of recommended temperature probes.

 

Table 6. Recommended Temperature Probes

 

 

Probe

Usage

 

 

80PK-1

The general purpose bead probe is an alternative, for quick, accurate surface

temperatures and air temperatures within ducts, vent temperatures.

 

 

 

80PK-8

Pipe clamp probes (2) are essential for tracking continuously changing

temperature differentials on hydronic tubing and pipe loops, and good for quick,

 

 

accurate refrigerant temperatures.

 

 

80PK-9

The insulation piercing probe provides a sharp tip to pierce pipe insulation and flat

probe tip for good surface thermal contact, air temperatures within ducts, and vent

 

 

temperatures.

 

 

80PK-11

The Velcro pipe probe is a convenient way to attach a thermocouple to a pipe

while keeping hands free.

 

 

 

80PK-25

The piercing probe is the most versatile option. Good for checking air temperature

in ducts, surface temperature under carpets/pads, liquids, thermometer wells, vent

 

 

temperatures, and for penetrating pipe insulation.

 

 

80PK-26

The tapered probe is a good general-purpose gas and surface probe, with a good

length and low mass tip casing for faster reaction to surface and air temperatures.
