Great for small applications
40awg works great for my small devices —- allowing me to get right to the spot I want to measure.

Nice Product
I purchased a package of 5 thermocouples. They arrived well packaged and, for someone who doesn't work w/thermocouples, the workmanship and insulation were very nice. I would definitely purchase this product from Omega again.

Excellent TC's
Excellent thermocouples, durable and directly integrate-able into all of our multiplexer systems. The connectors (separate purchase) make quick work of the bare wire for our handheld probes. Easy.

Reliable TCs
Only docked a star as I wanted T-type but the stock was too low, which it often is. I bought K-type as they were sufficient, and they arrived as expected.

What is the Tip Length? 5TC-TT-T-30-120. (The total length is 3m I need to know the Tip Length at the point of contact. Is it immersible in the water?
The bead is nominally 2.5x the diameter of the wire so 30 AWG being .010" the bead is 0.025". It is not considered an immersion probe but for short durations it can be used.

Why do all these thermocouples have a minimum measurable temperature starting at 0°C? Are there any thermocouples that can measure -20-0°C?
All of our thermocouples are made with Special Limits of Error (SLE). Special Limits of Error Wire (SLE) made products are only spec’d out for temperatures above 32°F (0°C). So, anything below 32°F (0°C) does not comply with the SLE specification. We don't state an accuracy for SLE Wire-Made Products below 0°C (32°F). Accuracy testing shows it is no longer linear. We cannot certify or guarantee the accuracy for temperatures below 0 C. The thermocouples can still measure temperatures below 0 C but we cannot certify the accuracy.

What is the diameter of the thermocouple 5TC-TT-J-40-36? Can it be used at temperatures up to 500 °C? At what temperature does the insulation start to melt for this thermocouple?
Thank you for your inquiry Moe1. The size of the cross section of 5TC-TT-J-40-36 is 0.4 x 0.7 mm (0.017" x 0.026"). You cannot use 5TC-TT-J-40-36 at temperatures up to 500 °C since it is only rated for temperatures up to 260 C and will start to melt if used in temperatures over 260 C.

What is the percentage uncertainty for 5TC-TT-KI-40-1M? I am working in a temperature range of 15-60 degrees, is the uncertainty 0.4%, so 0.06-0.24 C?
Thank you for the inquiry. We do not provide uncertainty numbers for this series. Accuracy spec follows ANSI special limits of error; +/- 0.4% of reading or 1.1 C whichever is greater.
Best regards

Can I submerged 5TC series thermocouple in water ?
Thank you for your inquiry. We do not recommend submerging 5TC series thermocouple in water. For a submersible thermocouple, please look at the HSTC series hermetically sealed thermocouples: https://assets.omega.com/pdf/test-and-measurement-equipment/temperature/sensors/thermocouple-probes/HSTC.pdf

What's the maximum Temp for 5TC-TT-T-24-72 that the insulation not melt?
The maximum temperature that the wire insulation can withstand is 260C

What is the external dimension (cross section) of 5TC-TT-T-40-36?
(0.017 x 0.026) (Height x Width)

Can this exposed thermocouple be attached directly to a metal surface? Or does it need to be electrically isolated first.
Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, you can attach the exposed thermocouple directly to a metal surface but we recommend electrically isolating the tip to avoid any noise issues.
