New K-Type Thermocouples Stay Right Where The Technician Wants Them To
Brea, Calif.--
Fieldpiece Instruments has added two new thermocouples, ATA1 and ATWB1, to
its extensive line of thermocouples for the HVAC/R field service technician.
Designed to solve common problems encountered in the HVAC/R field service,
these thermocouples have an alligator clip on the end so they stay put even
when tugged on by the technician.
To do superheat, two temperatures are needed—outdoor dry bulb measuring
the air stream in front of the condenser coils, and indoor wet bulb measuring
the air stream at the return air register or in front of the evaporator coil.
The ATA1 measures dry bulb and the ATAWB1 measures wet bulb. In both cases,
Fieldpiece’s alligator clip design will hold the thermocouple in place
so it can consistently measure the temperature of the air stream.
The new thermocouples work with any instrument that accepts a standard k-type
plug, including the Fieldpiece SC66, SC67, SC76, ATH3, ST3, and LT17. The
thermocouples come with the easy-to-store "wrap-tab" plug for lead
storage. Just wrap the lead wire around the tab for convenient storage.
·
ATA1 Bead Thermocouple: the alligator clip holds the thermocouple
firmly in place. Now the technician can be sure his thermocouple will stay
in place.
· ATWB1 Wet Bulb Thermocouple:
technicians can measure wet bulb easily and accurately with the ATWB1. Just
wet the “sock” with water, put it in an air flow, and measure
wet bulb with any k-type thermometer. This also has an alligator clip to keep
it in place.
“Fieldpiece designed these thermocouples after getting a lot of input
from HVAC/R field service technicians. They may look simple, but they both
solve real world problems better than anything else!” says Rey Harju
of Fieldpiece.
The thermocouples are available immediately. Fieldpiece also offers a wide
variety of K-type thermocouples for field service technicians for measuring
gases, surfaces, fluids and semi-solids.
Fieldpiece products are sold exclusively through authorized Fieldpiece distributors.
