cooper atkins temp probe question

[pacnw]

Is the thermocouple type temp clamp, https://www.ebay.com/itm/COOPER-ATKI...EAAOSw2N1Zzb3G, as accurate as their thermistor type?

Will this tc type clamp be any better than other mfrs tc temp clamps?

[HVAC_Marc]

eh, they're not as good and they are more brittle. I dont know about the durability vs other oems.

I had k-type TCs before and they were the worst.

Basically all k-type tc are the same.

[HVAC_Marc]

Well there you go then. Im not a fan of k-types.

I like the cooper way better than Fluke or the ones that came with my Sman. Oh yea stay away fron the UEI.

Looking at the pipe strap version of that clamp.

ah, well, yes pretty much the same. Their package may be different but in my experience with them they are brittle and dont last very long. They read fine when they are working.

I am still using the 2 I bought 4 years ago after the flukes failed. Granted I don't do lots of roof work and they aren't I the sun a lot but no signs of being brittle.

so the FP ones are not great either i suppose? i wonder how inaccurate they are as ai have the FP Dual clamp ST4 meter with two of those Ktype plugs..are they simply laggers or are they giving me bad readings?

Looking at the pipe strap version of that clamp.

I bought some for my SMAN460s for the larger pipes. Have not had time to compare them to the Fieldpiece ones yet.

The cooper-atkins pipe strap probe is very handy! It's worth the $$

"Model 4011 Pipe Strap Probe" is what it's called.

those are the pones that came with my IConnect set..i prefer a clamp vs velcro but they are very accurate

[HVAC_Marc]

The one I have isnt velcro. it's a strap that locks into a V-shaped slot.

The thermocouple version of that strap is a 54011-K

That's the one I'm looking to get but it cost more than the 4011 which is a thermistor.

The 54011-k are the ones I got for the SMAN460. Pricey if I remember correctly. I do not know why Fieldpiece does not go with the thermistor.

I have a ton of the 4011 for the SH66 and RH77A
