Supported Applications
The Omega TC-08 is an eight-channel USB thermocouple data acquisition module designed to measure temperatures using miniature connector thermocouples. It supports Types B, E, J, K, N, R, S, and T for temperature measurement applications requiring connection to a Windows-based PC (XP SP2 or above, Vista, Win 7). The device is also capable of measuring other sensors utilizing the ±70 mV input range.
Operating Conditions & Performance
The TC-08 provides temperature measurement ranges dependent on the specific thermocouple type connected. Overall capabilities span from -270 to 1820°C (-454 to 3308°F). Specific documented ranges include Thermocouple Type B: 20 to 1820°C (68 to 3308°F); Type E: -270 to 910°C (-454 to 1670°F); Type J: -210 to 1200°C (-346 to 192°F); Type K: -270 to 1370°C (-454 to 2498°F); Type N: -270 to 1300°C (-454 to 2372°F); Types R and S: -50 to 1760°C (-58 to 3200°F); and Type T: -270 to 400°C (-454 to 752°F).
Performance specifications include a temperature accuracy of the sum of ±0.2% of reading and ±0.5°C, with voltage accuracy at the sum of ±0.2% of reading and ±10 µV. The module features automatic cold junction compensation with a conversion time of 100 ms (including thermocouple and cold junction compensation). Resolution is specified as 20-bits, with a noise-free resolution of 16.25-bits.

Configuration Options
The TC-08 series is configured as an eight-channel module with miniature thermocouple input connectors and a supplied USB cable measuring 1.8 m (6'). The unit connects via a USB 1.1 interface to the host PC.
Software & Data Output
The device includes TC-08 Recorder and Player software for data visualization, allowing output in spreadsheet or graph format. A single high-specification PC can support up to 64 devices via the driver, while the included software supports up to 20 USB TC-08 units simultaneously.
Physical Dimensions
The module measures 201 x 104 x 34 mm (7.91 x 4.09 x 1.34"). It is CE marked and carries a 5 YEAR WARRANTY.
Key Product Differences
The series consists of the TC-08 model, described as an "8-channel thermocouple data acquisition module." The resolution capability varies by temperature range; for example, Type K offers 0.1°C resolution from -270 to 1370°C and 0.025°C resolution from -250 to 1370°C.
Users must install the software before connecting the USB TC-08 device. The product is not designed for use in, or should not be used for, human applications.
