Fieldpiece ATB1 K-Type Thermocouple Block Aluminum Clamp 400F

Description

Product Overview

The Fieldpiece ATB1 K-Type Thermocouple Block is engineered for precision temperature sensing in demanding industrial and scientific environments. Constructed from high‑grade aluminum, the block offers excellent corrosion resistance while maintaining a lightweight profile that simplifies installation. The clamp‑mount design secures the thermocouple firmly to piping or equipment, ensuring consistent thermal contact and minimizing signal drift over time. With a maximum continuous temperature rating of 400°F (204°C) and a voltage rating of 400 V, the ATB1 meets the rigorous standards required for heavy‑duty applications.

Key specifications include a compact 1″ × 1″ footprint, two contact poles, and a K‑type male mini plug that conforms to industry‑standard thermocouple conductors (nickel‑chromium/nickel‑aluminum). The block’s gauge of 4.0 and clamp‑type connector provide a secure, low‑resistance connection that is easy to service. Weighing only 0.634 oz, the ATB1 can be integrated into tight spaces without compromising performance. The product is backed by a robust warranty from Standard Plumbing Supply, reinforcing its reliability for long‑term use.

Usage

Designed for versatility, the ATB1 thermocouple block excels in a variety of settings. It is ideal for monitoring temperature in HVAC systems, boiler controls, process heating, and refrigeration units where accurate readings are critical for safety and efficiency. The clamp‑mount allows quick attachment to round or flat surfaces, making it suitable for retrofitting older equipment or integrating into new installations. Its compact size enables placement in confined panels, control cabinets, and instrumentation enclosures without obstructing other components.

Field technicians appreciate the plug‑and‑play nature of the K‑type male mini plug, which reduces wiring errors and speeds up commissioning. The block’s 400°F rating covers most commercial heating applications, while the 400 V rating ensures compatibility with standard power supplies. Whether used in a manufacturing plant, a laboratory, or a commercial building, the ATB1 provides reliable temperature data that supports precise process control and preventive maintenance strategies.
