The Thomas Traceable Big Digit Type K Thermometer is used in applications requiring a broad range of temperatures, including furnaces, kilns, freezers, and other industrial applications. The thermometer measures temperature from -50 to 1300 degrees C (-58 to 2000 degrees F), with an accuracy of + or - 0.3 percent plus 1 degree C. The beaded Type K thermocouple probe has a four-foot cable. The LCD display has 5/8"-high digits that are visible from up to 15 ft. The thermometer has a hold feature to freeze the display and capture the current reading and a max hold feature that captures the highest reading over any time period. The thermometer is traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology standards, indicating that it is calibrated to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 17025 levels. This Thomas thermometer is used to measure temperature in industrial furnaces, kilns, and freezers.

Digital thermocouple thermometers measure the temperature of air, liquids, or surfaces. They may measure temperature in Celsius, Fahrenheit, or both. Thermocouple thermometers are composed of two conductors of different metals, usually alloys of the same metal, which touch at the sensor end of the thermometer. The difference in conductivity between the two metal pieces produces a voltage flow between the sensor end and the open end of each conductor, which can be used to determine the temperature. Different alloys are used for different temperature ranges. Thermocouple thermometers are used in applications that require a large temperature range and do not require a high degree of accuracy. These thermometers are used in kilns, turbine exhaust systems, and furnaces.
