Arduino MKR Therm Shield Arduino Shield Temperature Sensor -200°C to +700°C 3.3V ASX00012

Arduino ASX00012 MKR Therm Shield is an Arduino Shield designed to extend the capability of MKR boards to measure temperature accurately using type K thermocouples and DS18Bxx digital one wire sensors. It features a wide operational temperature range from -200°C to +700°C and operates at a low voltage of 3.3V, suitable for Arduino MKR devices.

The thermocouples leverage the thermoelectric properties of junctions between Alumel and Chromel metal wires, offering precise temperature sensing far beyond typical digital sensors or thermistors ranges. This makes the shield ideal for industrial use cases such as boilers, soldering stations, coolers, and quality-controlled 3D printer extruder temperature monitoring.

This shield utilizes the MAX31855 digital interface for thermocouple signals, allowing reliable analog-to-digital temperature conversion. It provides versatile connectivity options, supporting both the standard K type connector and a screw terminal for mechanical wire connections without soldering.

The product includes a dedicated Arduino library to simplify reading temperature data directly from the thermocouple, facilitating rapid integration in educational, research, prototyping, and industrial projects.

Manufactured in Italy, this shield offers robust construction and adherence to quality manufacturing practices. It is ideally suited for laboratory equipment, industrial sensor development, HVAC systems monitoring, and embedded systems applications.
