Thermocouple Probe Type K
The Dayton 36GL16 is a grounded Type K thermocouple probe built for industrial temperature measurement. It suits technicians and engineers who need a standard plug connection for air, gas or liquid applications. The probe fits 1/4 in MNPT and 1/8 in MNPT process threads.
Temperature Range and Cable Length
The probe operates from -325 Degrees to 2,280 Degrees F (-200 Degrees to 1,250 Degrees C), giving wide headroom for extreme cryogenic and high-heat processes. A 6 in cable and 6 in probe length limit reach to nearby fittings. Longer runs or remote heads will need an extension.
Replacing Worn Probes
This unit replaces a failed or drifted Type K probe with the same plug and thread size. The jump is worth it when the old sensor no longer holds calibration across the full -325 to 2,280 Degrees F span. It does not suit applications needing an ungrounded junction or a different thermocouple type.

Questions about this item
Will this Type K probe with its standard plug connect to the older panel meter I already own?
The probe uses a standard Type K plug, so it mates with any instrument that accepts a Type K connector.
How can I confirm the probe is reading correctly once installed in my 1/4 in MNPT port?
Check that the display follows a known temperature source within the probe’s -325 °F to 2,280 °F range and that the grounded junction responds quickly to changes.
Does the box include the 1/8 in MNPT adapter or must I order it separately?
The probe itself has 1/4 in MNPT threads; a 1/8 in MNPT fitting is not included and must be purchased separately if required.
