TC-08 thermocouple data logger

The TC‑08 thermocouple data logger offers industry-leading performance and a costeffective temperature measurement solution. With eight direct thermocouple inputs, the TC‑08 can take accurate, rapid readings. In addition, you can use up to 20 units simultaneously on one PC. The logger can measure and record temperatures ranging from −270 °C to +1820 °C using the appropriate thermocouple type (B, E, J, K, N, R,

S, T). It draws power from your computer’s USB port, so no external power supply is necessary.

Wide temperature range

The TC-08 thermocouple data logger is designed to measure a wide range of temperatures using any thermocouple that has a miniature thermocouple connector. Pico supplies a wide range of suitable thermocouples (see Ordering information).

All types of thermocouple in common use today are supported, allowing an effective temperature range of −270 °C to +1820 °C (the actual temperature range depends on the thermocouple being used).

You can also use the built-in cold junction compensation (CJC) circuit as a ninth channel to measure ambient temperature.

Fast and accurate temperature data acquisition

With the TC-08 thermocouple data logger, you can make temperature measurements both quickly and accurately.

The short conversion time of the TC-08 means that it can take up to 10 temperature measurements every second (CJC counts as an additional measurement), while the high (20-bit) resolution ensures that the TC-08 can detect minute changes in temperature. For Type K thermocouples, the TC-08 can maintain a better than 0.025 °C resolution over a −250 °C to +1370 °C range.
