CONNECTING A THERMOCOUPLE
Use the correct thermocouple type for your
instrument. Using an incorrect
thermocouple type will result in erroneous
readings. Thermocouples are color coded
by type using the North American ANSI
Color Code as follows:
TYPE COLOR
J Black
K Yellow

Thermocouple connectors have one wide
blade and one narrow blade. Do not force
connector in backwards. Connect
