To avoid electrical shock, do not use this
probe when voltages exceeding 24 V ac rms
or 60 V dc are present. The probe tip is
electronically connected to the output
terminals.
Introduction
The 80PK-26 SureGrip
essentially a bead probe with a handle that can be used
as a surface probe. The stainless steel sheath allows the
bead to measure temperatures higher than bead probes
with flexible leads. The handle also allows you to apply
more focused surface pressure without having your hand
in close proximity to the source. The 40-inch (1-meter)
cable is terminated with a Type K miniature thermocouple
connector with 0.792-mm (.312-in) pin spacing. The
80PK-26 can be used with any temperature-measuring
instrument that is designed to accept Type K
thermocouples and has miniature connector input.

Summary of Contents for Fluke 80PK-26

  • Page 1: Temperature Probe

    The 40-inch (1-meter) cable is terminated with a Type K miniature thermocouple connector with 0.792-mm (.312-in) pin spacing. The 80PK-26 can be used with any temperature-measuring instrument that is designed to accept Type K thermocouples and has miniature connector input.

  • Page 3: Measurement Considerations

    Even though the sheath to junction transition is sealed, it is not recommended to immerse the probe in liquid or saturated vapor. The 80PK-26 should not be used in reducing atmospheres or in a vacuum. Excess mounting force can deform or crush the bead. With the probe perpendicular to the measurement surface, do not apply more than 12.25 new tons (2.75 pounds-force).
  • Page 4: Troubleshooting

    Check for an open circuit indicator on the measuring instrument. Some temperature measuring instruments have a built-in circuit to indicate if the connected probe is open. (All Fluke Temperature-measuring instruments have this feature.) Refer to the owner’s manual accompanying the measuring instrument to see if this feature is available.
