These thermocouples can be used in outdoor and wet environments, including bright sunlight, with little to no effect on performance or accuracy. Our unique construction techniques provides a fast responding thermocouple junction in a thin and flexible mounting pad. These SA3 thermocouples are available in 2 styles, stripped #30AWG solid leads, or with a miniature color coded connector.

fragile, thin wire and insulation, not robust
Fragile, thin wire and insulation, not robust. One wire broke after first use.

adhesive did not stick to stainless steel
poor adhesive. Did not stick to cleaned stainless steel surfaces. Had to apply anothe layer of fiberglass high heat tape to get them to stay in place.

Self-adhesive thermocouples
This tc serves its purpose well! Easy to install but you have to be very careful not to damage it.

False advertisement - very disappointed
Even now you picture shows a thermocouple with a yellow connector at the end. I ordered the parts thinking that it was connectorized, but received the TCs with bare wire. Very disappointed in Omega.

Love This Product!
Works like a Charm! Need to attach these to a wax surface to go through an investment casting process and study how long the molds take to dry. These self adhesives work fantastic to stick to the mold and I would recommend.

Super fragile - BE CAREFUL
Yes they're conveniently sized and when they work they work well. I ordered 3 (because I needed 3). One of them broke in the adhesive/PI sandwich section. The actual sensor wire broke off where the insulated wire began. This boggled my mind because that joint is contained within the adhesive section and is effectively strain relieved - that's how weak that joint is. Ordering some new thermocouples to try out.

Improved design
Good adhesive, seems better than the older style of these which I used to use, and the more rectangular size seems to work nicer as well instead of the old design which was more square-ish.

In the product details, there is a column called "Minimum Temperature Measurement". The result is in inches.....specifically 36in for the device I ordered. What does that mean?
Thank You for your question.
That is a website error. The length in inches describes the length of the wire being used in for that part in accordance to that part number.
I will submit a ticket in order to have that category title fixed.

are these well insulated electrically, what if these are pasted on high voltage copper bus bars with voltage up to 500V to 1000V are there any other products that for surface mount application that can be used on copper bsubar with 1000V on it.
Hi Amit,
The adhesive pad is electrically insulative but we do not provide a voltage rating. If applied to a surface with potential the leads should be considered to be at the same potential.
Best regards

1. what is the accuracy of SA3-J-SRTC? 2. what is the response time of SA3-J-SRTC? 2 seconds or 0.3 seconds? Thank you
Surface Thermocouple achieves response times of less than 0.15 seconds.

I want to measure the metal tube surface temperature inside a tube in shell heat exchanger (undergraduate lab). The environment would be steam/water up to about 120 degrees C. Will the SA3 thermocouples function in this environment? Other suggestions?
Thank you for your inquiry Rolf. This probe works on wet environments that don't include the full water immersion and powerful water jets.

Can you get this item already attached to a connector for high temperatures?
This would need to be handled by contacting the Temperature Engineering group directly at temp@omega.com.

Are these thermocouples applicable in Vacuum environment (5torr- 10torr) pressure? at around 200 deg.
Thank you for your inquiry. These sensors are NOT vacuum rated.

What is the accuracy of these SA3-J-120-SRTC?
Thank you for engaging with OMEGA.
The accuracy of the SA3-J is greater of +/- 2.2°C or 0.75%

Is this thermocouple compatible with RDXL6SD-USB Temperature data logger? Also, can these thermocouples be reused?
Thank you for your inquiry. Yes, SA3-K-120-SRTC thermocouple is compatible with RDXL6SD-USB Temperature data logger. Yes, these can be reused as long as the adhesive is present.
