Supported Applications

The Omega SPHT Series consists of economical, high-temperature surface probes designed for measuring surface temperature. These thermocouple-based sensors are configured with a ceramic tip and spring-loaded contacts to ensure reliable contact on the target material.

  • Type J, K, or E calibrations available
  • Standard Limits of Error compliance across all models in this series

Operating Conditions & Performance

The SPHT Series is engineered for high-temperature surface measurements with a ceramic tip rated to 650ºC (1200ºF). The molded utility handle provides thermal protection, rated to 220ºC (428ºF), allowing safe handling during operation. Electrical connectivity is provided via a retractable cable that expands to 1.5 m (5′) terminating in a subminiature connector for use with handheld thermometers.

Key Performance Parameters

  • Process Temperature: Ceramic tip rated to 650ºC (1200ºF)
  • Ambient/Handle Rating: Molded utility handle rated to 220ºC (428ºF)
  • Accuracy Class: Standard Limits of Error

Physical Dimensions

The series offers two primary probe lengths with corresponding sheath diameters. The standard configuration includes a handle section length of 136.5 mm (5 3⁄8″) and a surface tip diameter of 9.52 mm (3⁄8″). For right-angle models, the vertical leg measures 69.8 mm (2 3⁄4″).

Configuration Options

The SPHT Series supports multiple configurations to accommodate different measurement geometries and calibration requirements.

Calibration Options

  • Type J surface probe
  • Type K surface probe
  • Type E surface probe

Probe Lengths & Sheath Sizes

  • 150 mm (6″) length with 3.0 mm (1⁄8″) sheath diameter
  • 300 mm (12″) length with 6.0 mm (1⁄4″) sheath diameter

Housing & Connection Features

  • Molded utility handle rated to 220ºC (428ºF)
  • Retractable cable expands to 1.5 m (5′)
  • Subminiature connector for handheld thermometers
  • Included plastic cap for protection of the surface element

Special Configurations

A 90° right angle probe is available by ordering models with the -RA suffix. The sheath material is specified as 304 SS OMEGACLAD®.

Key Product Differences

The SPHT Series distinguishes variants primarily through calibration type, physical dimensions, and geometric orientation.

  • Calibration: Models are designated by J, K, or E in the part number to indicate Type J, Type K, or Type E surface probes respectively.
  • Length & Diameter: The numeric suffix '6' denotes a 150 mm (6″) probe with a 3.0 mm (1⁄8″) sheath diameter; the suffix '12' denotes a 300 mm (12″) probe with a 6.0 mm (1⁄4″) sheath diameter.
  • Orientation: Models ending in -RA feature a 90° right angle surface probe design, while standard models are straight probes.

The SPHT-K-6 model is included at no additional cost with specific infrared thermometers: OS532E, OS533E, OS534E, OS534E-CF, and OS533E-CF.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Temperature probes We purchased 2 temperature probes last month but we had to return them because they were not what we needed.

How it works

Asked by: erock
Thank you for your inquiry. The SPHT Series surface probes are spring loaded probes where you basically apply some pressure on the tip of the probe to get a temperature reading.

Does this come with a valid calibration certificate, meeting standard limit of error?

Asked by: Pieter
Thank you for your inquiry. This probe does not come with a calibration certificate. It only comes with a certificate of conformance (CAL-1 cert.). Yes, this probe meets the Standard Limits of Error.
