The JBC PH218 Thermocouple Type K is designed to measure the temperature at a specific point on a PCB during soldering and rework processes.
It allows accurate temperature monitoring and helps manage temperature profiles when used with JBC preheaters and hot air stations. This ensures controlled heating and helps prevent thermal stress or damage to sensitive electronic components.
The thermocouple can also be used with the JBC TID Digital Thermometer for precise temperature measurement.
For optimal measurement accuracy, the thermocouple should be fixed to the PCB using Kapton tape.
