Precision Temperature Detection for 3D Printing

These thermocouple screw sensors by CG offer high accuracy and fast response times, ensuring reliable temperature readings right where you need them during 3D printing. Their direct contact design avoids delays caused by intermediate materials, improving printing consistency and control.

The sensors come in K and PT100 types, both capable of monitoring temperatures up to 200°C, suitable for a wide range of 3D printer models and applications.

Robust Waterproof Construction

Designed for industrial-grade durability, both sensor types feature copper screw threads and waterproof probes to handle moisture and harsh conditions. The PTFE insulated wires further protect against environmental factors, extending sensor lifespan and maintaining accuracy.

  • Copper screw thread provides sturdy and stable mounting (M3 or M4).
  • Waterproof probe design ensures reliable performance in humid or messy environments.
  • PTFE cable insulation resists heat and chemical damage for durability.

Distinctive Cable Materials and Colors

To help users easily identify the sensor type, the K type thermocouple features a blue PTFE insulated cable, while the PT100 type uses a white PTFE silver-plated cable. Both options provide flexible, heat-resistant wiring suited for integration into 3D printer setups.

  • K type: Blue PTFE cable.
  • PT100 type: White PTFE silver-plated three-core wire.
