A thermocouple module is a package that contains a K-type thermocouple and a display. It can measure and display high temperatures up to 800°C.
What is a Thermocouple?
A Thermocouple is a well-known electrical component for measuring temperature. This component also has two dissimilar electrical conductors that form an electrical junction.
The voltage produced by the thermocouple is highly dependent on the temperature of the thermocouple. Using this voltage, we can measure the temperature.
Based on the conductive alloy, various types of thermocouples have been developed, each of which offers a different range and accuracy. In addition, the thermocouple type is indicated by an English letter. These letters include J, K, N, T, E, R, S, B, and C.
The K-type thermocouple usually has the longest range.

How to Use XH-B310 Module
Using the XH-B310 Module is super easy. First, connect the wires of the thermocouple sensor to the appropriate terminal.
There is an XH female terminal on the back of the display for feeding the module. Also, along with the module, there is a pair of red-black wires connected to the XH male connector. Connect one side of these wires to the connector and the other side to the +12v power supply.
Connect the circuit as shown below.
If you have a 5V power supply, you can use a voltage booster module. You can visit this link to buy a voltage booster module.
