Type K thermocouple with stainless steel wheels
Internal reference: 348/SPTCRINOX
The type K thermocouple with wheels is a temperature probe for contact measurement on surfaces, especially useful when the material is in motion.
Its design is geared towards industrial environments where a fast, stable and repeatable reading is needed.
It integrates 4 stainless steel wheels with bearings to slide the sensor over rollers, conveyor belts, metal sheets and other surfaces without stopping the process.
The probe includes a 1m coiled cable for greater mobility and terminates in a flat mini male type K connector, compatible with most portable indicators and measuring equipment.
What is this surface thermocouple?
This is a mobile temperature sensor designed to take surface readings under constant contact pressure while the production line continues operating. The result: more consistent measurements and fewer stoppages.
Industrial applications
This wheeled sensor is used when it is necessary to measure the temperature of elements that rotate or move continuously.
- Temperature measurement in rollers and cylinders
- Control of conveyor belts and hot belts
- Online verification of sheets, coils and metal surfaces
- Continuous processes in plastics, paper, textiles and printing
- Preventive and corrective maintenance on production lines
Technical advantages of the wheeled design
- Fast and repeatable surface readings
- Smooth gliding thanks to stainless steel wheels with bearings
- Robust construction for intensive plant use
- Spiral cable that improves ergonomics and mobility
- Type K connector for direct integration with standard instrumentation
The typical working range is between -50 °C and 500 °C (depending on the measuring equipment). In continuous contact, stainless steel wheels are usually used up to ~300 °C, suitable for demanding thermal processes.
In summary: the type K thermocouple with wheels is an efficient solution for production, quality and maintenance when you need to measure surface temperature without stopping the line.
