A professional thermocouple quick-response thermometer has been newly designed to offer improved performance to deliver high-quality temperature measurements by means of a range of interchangeable probes. The thermometer enables fast measurement in areas such as kitchens, research and teaching applications, laboratories, industry, crafts, and several other application areas.

“Greisinger has, through its re-design of the G 1200 thermocouple thermometer, improved the performance, quality and measurement of the device while maintaining its cost effectiveness and high-precision performance, making it the smart choice for the relevant industries,” says GHM Messtechnik South Africa MD Jan Grobler.

Used in the industrial metrology sector, the thermocouple type K instrument was developed mainly for oxidising environments and must be specially protected in other types of environments. The maximum measuring temperature is 1200 °C and its measuring speed is limited only by the connected probe.

Type K thermocouples measure the occurrence of a thermoelectric voltage caused by a temperature gradient along an electrical conductor and can be manufactured cost-effectively in the smallest possible size, with coverage of an extensive temperature range.

The G 1200 is equipped with a high-precision temperature compensation, designed to ensure the best possible practical accuracy. “The quick response thermometer G 1200 is always suitable when the fastest measurements of broad temperature ranges are required, the smallest measuring tips are required for puncture measurements/core temperature measurements, or the most diverse surface measurements must be carried out by contact, forceps, or wire probes. The G 1200 is also particularly suitable as a gourmet thermometer due to its speed,” adds Grobler.

The new series was developed to focus on the essential functions of measurement technology - the sophisticated thermocouple reference point for the best ultimate accuracy.

The quick response thermometer can be used for a variety of niche applications such as:

Kitchens, in cooking or baking, for the measurement of liquids, as well as core and cooking temperatures, which can be quickly determined.

In the laboratory, the G 1200 can measure the temperature of substances and liquids delivering reliable and accurate measurement across a wide measuring range.

The device offers above-average battery life and is supplied with a protective carrying bag, a self-sticking metal belt clip, various hoses, and a hose safety clip for pressures above 1 bar. To ensure the accuracy of the measurement results, an ISO calibration certificate is also available.
