Privacy and Security

Used with PicoLog data logging software, they replace costly chart recorders and complicated ‘plug in’ data acquisition boards. These PC based temperature data loggers allow your computer to display and record temperatures. PicoLog can collect data at rates from one sample per second to once per hour and upto 1 million samples can be recorded. Data can be displayed in graphical or spreadsheet format, both during and after data collection.

TC-08 Thermocouple to PC Data Logger

Features TC-08 Screen
  • Measures and records up to 8 thermocouples
  • Works with all popular thermocouple types
  • Wide temperature range (-270°C to +1800°C)
  • Built in cold junction compensation
  • High resolution and accuracy
  • No power supply required
  • Supplied with PicoLog data logging software


The TC-08 is an 8 channel themocouple to PC interface, it can measure the full range of temperatures from -270°C to +1800°C and works with all popular types (B,E,J,K,N,R,S,T). There is also a 60mV range which can be used for other types of sensor.

The TC-08 is very easy to use - just plug into the serial (or USB via the adapter) port of your computer, connect a thermocouple and you are ready to measure temperatures. See also our advice on choosing and using thermocouples
