What is a thermocouple thermometer?
A. Thermometers with thermocouples measure, amplify, linearize and display the voltage signal generated by the thermocouple probe. They can read various temperature ranges depending on the type of probe used. Probes are specified by a letter designation such as J, K, T, or E, depending on the temperature range they can read. They are also available in different shapes for measuring surfaces, penetrating materials or taking air/gas measurements. Some are also available with data storage capabilities, alarms, converting temperature scales and average readings.
