Evidence shows that peripheral thermometers, or those that can be used orally or under the arm, have poor accuracy compared with central thermometers, or those that can be used rectally…
We design and build Industrial Thermocouple Probes for heavy duty use. These probes are far more durable in harsh environments. Applications include, pipelines, tanks, ovens/kilns, and more. Industrial builds feature components for high temperature use. As well as corrosive protection. Industrial Probes also feature a protective head to keep dust and moisture out. Choose from various lengths, diameters, sheath materials, and housings. Order a custom design from our Industrial Configurator today. Or select one of our pre-configured builds below. (Check out the Industrial configurator for more details.)
