FTH1260-11
Wireless Type-K Thermocouple Sensor
The Wireless Type-K Thermocouple Sensor from Fidar Electronics measures high temperature with a Type-K thermocouple and automatic cold-junction compensation. It links over a LoRa radio with no cabling at all.
Type-K thermocouple input for high temperatures
Automatic cold-junction compensation
Fast thermal response for steep processes
LoRa radio link up to 1 km line of sight
AES-128 encrypted payloads
Pairs with the FWL1600-01 LoRa card
No cabling; pairing takes seconds
Low-battery warning per node
A Type-K thermocouple is a junction of two dissimilar metals that turns a temperature difference straight into a voltage. Its appeal is a very wide range, a fast response and tolerance of brutal conditions — which is why furnaces, burners and boilers use one where a PT100 would not survive. This sensor reads the thermocouple voltage and applies cold-junction compensation to recover the real process temperature.

Installation
Observe probe and compensating-cable polarity, and keep the tip out of direct flame radiation so the reading follows the process, not the fire.
