Manage processing temperatures and other conditions with a thermocouple sensor

Thermocouple sensor module compatible with JIS-standard K-type thermocouples. By connecting the included K-type thermocouple with Omega connector (or equivalent commercially available K-type thermocouples), temperature measurement is possible. The measured temperature data can be acquired via connection to a BraveJIG router.
Capable of measuring and monitoring high temperatures exceeding 100 °C and low temperatures below −10 °C. Suitable for temperature monitoring of factory equipment, abnormality detection, heating process control, and other environments requiring temperature management.

Thermocouple Module
Thermocouple

The module connects to the router using Bluetooth® technology.

The module communicates with the router via Bluetooth® Low Energy. Communication of several hundred meters is also possible in Bluetooth® Long Range mode.

Router and Module

Various power supply options available depending on site conditions

Power supply to modules can be selected according to installation conditions and sensing frequency. Options include power from the router via module cable, from a BraveJIG Battery, from a distribution board or AC power source via an external power conversion adapter, or from a mobile battery using a Module USB Type-A conversion cable.
