Recommended temperature probes
Probe Usage
80PK-1 The general purpose bead probe is 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 Flexible cuff thermocouple temperature 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.
