Omega SCASS-020U-60-SHX Type K Thermocouple Probe Pair 60" Ceramic Sheath Kit
This is a matched pair of Omega Engineering SCASS-020U-60-SHX sub-miniature Type K thermocouple probes, each fitted with a 60-inch (5-foot) ceramic sheath and a quick-disconnect SHX-series connector. The set ships in its original aluminum foam-lined carry case and includes all original accessories. The assembly meets Special Limits of Error (SLE) per EN 60584-2 Tolerance Class 1, indicating tighter accuracy than standard Type K tolerances.

Applications
Type K thermocouples are the most widely used thermocouple type in laboratory and industrial settings, covering a broad temperature range (roughly −200 °C to +1260 °C depending on sheath and insulation). The ceramic sheath on the SCASS-020U-60-SHX makes these probes well-suited for high-temperature environments where metallic sheaths would oxidize or corrode — common applications include kiln and furnace monitoring, ceramic firing, glass processing, and high-temperature chemical or materials research. The 60-inch sheath length allows the sensing junction to reach deep into process chambers, ovens, or reactors while keeping the connector and instrumentation at a safe distance from the heat source. The SHX quick-disconnect connector is Omega's sub-miniature format, compatible with Omega's sub-mini panel jacks and extension cables, making probe swaps fast without recalibrating the wiring. The SMCL-1 safety clips secure the connector against accidental disconnection, and the PCLM-SHX cable clamps provide strain relief at the probe body — both standard accessories for permanent or semi-permanent installations. This kit dates from 2011 based on the case label.
This Omega SCASS-020U-60-SHX Type K Thermocouple Probe Pair has been inspected and is in good used condition. Both probes show light handling wear consistent with prior use; the ceramic sheaths and quick-disconnect connectors appear intact with no visible damage. The aluminum carry case has minor surface scuffs but closes and latches securely. Accessory bags containing the SMCL-1 safety clips and PCLM-SHX cable clamps appear unopened.
