Black ball probe
The Black Body Temperature Probe is designed to measure the effective ambient temperature of an environment by utilising the principles of a black body radiation. By absorbing radiant energy from its surroundings, the probe provides a more representative indication of environmental temperature than a conventional air temperature sensor.
- Type K thermocouple sensor.
- Copper sphere, approximately 50 mm diameter.
- Matt black exterior coating to simulate black body characteristics and maximise radiant heat absorption.
- Bright copper interior surface to minimise internal radiation losses.
- Suitable for measuring combined effects of air temperature and radiant heat.
- Ideal for oven monitoring, environmental temperature measurement, and process applications.
- Robust construction for industrial environments.
- 2 metre glass fibre insulated cable with stainless steel over braided lead.
- Fitted with miniature Type K thermocouple connector.
Therma 1 is not included in the price
