This Type K Panel Mounted Thermocouple Socket is a crucial interface component designed to be fixed directly into a control panel or instrument enclosure. It provides a secure, easy-access receptacle for connecting K-Type thermocouple probes and extension leads, ensuring reliable transmission of the temperature signal to the control system (Supplier: Incertech).
Used widely in heat treatment consoles, recorders, and data acquisition units, the panel-mounted socket offers a standardized, durable termination point. Its use eliminates the need for direct wire clamping, speeding up setup time and reducing the risk of signal degradation from poor contact. The socket is manufactured with compensating alloys that match the K-Type thermocouple, preserving the accuracy of the thermal millivolt signal.
Providing a fixed, external connection point for K-Type thermocouples on heat treatment control units, temperature recorders, and field junction boxes.

1 x Type K Panel Mounted Thermocouple Socket.
K-Type Panel Jack, Flush Mount Socket, Thermocouple Receptacle, K-Type Connector.
The socket typically includes mounting hardware (e.g., screws or retaining clips) that secure it through a pre-cut opening in the instrument panel, providing a flush external connection point.
The internal terminals must be wired using the correct polarity of K-Type thermocouple or compensating extension cable to maintain the accuracy of the signal transmission into the instrument.
No, this socket is designed to be housed in the cold zone (the instrument or control panel) and is not rated for exposure to the high temperatures of the workpiece being treated.
