I need this product to be immersed in liquid brass at 1200C, is this possible, and this product came with the K-type thermocouple?

I seriously doubt it since that's 2192 Farienheight. This is also an inaccurate item by 4+ degrees. It does come with thermocouples *2. Hope this was helpful.

Yes. It has a temperature mode and includes a bead probe. It may be worthwhile to pick up the thermocouple adapter as well.

Loren, the thermocouples with this unit are miniatures, not normal size. And normal ones can not be use with the unit. They are nothing more than the two wires twisted together. I bought the unit to use to check the temp of my kilns - but if you put them into the heat the very, very thin wire starts to melt and bend.Too bad as the unit itself seems to be very good. If one could find a connector that would go from the unit to a normal T-couple it could be a useful unit - without it, for what I bought it for, it is all but useless. - jb

You would have to purchase a separate chiller unit, as well as a water cooled torch. You can weld metal as thick as you wish, or have patience for.

What you might be thinking of as a probe is actually the thermocouple. It's a K-type thermocouple and it's about 2-3' long.

Thankfully the thermal compound is not pre applied on the heatsink. It comes in a little plastic sleeve, seperatly. I would definitely apply the artic silver 5 compound instead of what comes with the heatsink. By the way this closed loop cooler is AWESOME. Lemme know if you have any other questions about it.

Bryan I just checked the instructions for my meter and it refers to using "special K type thermocouples" to actually touch something to get temperature, but I cannot remember if my meter came with any. That does not mean it didn't, I may have misplaced them. This function was not a big concern of mine so I never used it. The meter does read ambient temp just by putting it on the setting. Also be aware that the reading in Celsius, not F, if that is a concern you will obviously need to convert, however, not really a big deal. Hope this helps. Mike

The one I have came with a thermocouple rod and it need to go in the radiator, the rod should slide through the fins of the radiator. If you have a the version with the threaded thermocouple then the thermocouple need to be in direct contract with the coolant. This would be best of used as the coolant temp sensor.

Its a little big I tried it on my kettle last night, look for a 1 inch rubber stopper then you can drill it for the size of the copper tube you'll use for the chilling coil

The brass orifice is included. You might need a regulator if you don't already have one.

No, it doesn't. This product only contains the line for the thermocoupler and the tube for the gas to go through that lights the pilot light. And, of course, the mounting brackets for both. If your pilot light button (or is it the ignition button that creates the spark, that is broken??) is broken, that is something that is usually a part of the control valve itself. You might be able to contact the maker of the control valve and get a replacement, or you may have to buy an entirely new control valve, which can get pretty expensive especially if you have to hire a plumber or your local gas provider to install it for you.

Recommend look at the "Thermadyne W1003203 95 Amp TIG/Stick Welding System" on amazon. About a $100 more but has most of the things you will need except the Argon bottle.

You could add a K-type 6" long probe and that would get the air temp, I believe. Check it out here - Stainless Steel K-Type Thermocouple Insertion Probe 6"

Depends who you get it from. Most sellers don't include thermocouples, unless otherwise stated.They are sold separately.

The thermocouple is only used for measurement, not control. The rate of heating is not adjustable

I have been using Kingsford charcoal that is very successful. Using the temperature gauge at the top of the kettle is the key, however!!!! In accordance with the instructions, I also did a trial run to make sure I understood how it works.

You are correct. The MCC-91-2 controler can be purchased separately. The unit comes with a MC-91 controller that will only allow heat up to 120 degrees. Your installer will have to adjust the tan dip switch in the heater cabinet. Dip switch #6 will need to be turned "on" for the MCC to work at the higher temps. These instructions should be in the installation packet. Please note that temps over 120 degrees are not recommended and can cause severe scalding but are needed in some applications. This is a great heater! Have fun!
