I am nowadays in to a fresh research this relative to K Type Thermocouple and the ones with greater compatibility at the applications of soldering de-soldering of electronic components.

This travel started by me starting to explore as first Thermocouple sensors for soldering iron tip.
And yesterday Ali-Express search engine, this directed me at product solutions of K Type Thermocouple, these used at BGA and rework stations.

OMEGA SMPW-TT-K-30-SLE  this is a complex part number,  its actually a very thin probe for Max of 250C, but due it thin design it can pass-thru metallic spiral tube (flexible tube), which is a thermocouple holder, attached to a machine.

Now lets break down the OMEGA long part code:

SMPW = The code of the yellow miniature plug alone, this is an advertised product design since 2009.
 
TT-K-30 = The code of the attached wire, this is in production since 2012, Insulation material PFA.

SLE =  Special limits of Error Wire / a special customer request for a different accuracy tolerance.
Practically this code is meaningless if you are disconnected with the seller whom ordered the wire from OMEGA (USA).

===================================================================================

It is very interesting that this assembled thermocouple come with three temperature specifications.

a) Bare wire measuring range =  -200C ... +260C

b) Wire insulation Max tolerance = 260C (Teflon (teflon) temperature range)

c) Plug usable temperature range = Minus 200℃ to 220℃   

==================================================================================

Long story in sort, I did discover the product code of  SMPW- GG-K-30 SLE,  this is the one which attracted my interest.
I have plenty of 250C max thermocouple in my stock,  no-name up to the ones offers one with their multimeter.

The bead shape thermocouple this capable for 482℃ this is something that I do not have yet.  :)

==================================================================================

This OMEGA SMPW-TT-K-30 SLE, this is a free gift from a local friend.
And soon I will run a few benchmarks, so to discover of how an American made probe measure up VS similar work of Taiwan,  and even of China. 

I did prepare a interesting pack of photographs for our readers.  :)
