The KIC Explorer is a new generation of thermal profilers featuring an impressively compact design. It will easily move through the restrictive process dimensions encountered in today's thermal applications. The KIC Explorer incorporates state-of-the-art SMT technology and high-temperature rated components, backed by our distinguished reputation for reliability. You can depend on this rugged, innovative hardware to endure the harsh conditions of real-world factory use.
Modern applications introduce an array of thermal process complexities. To conquer those challenges, you need additional thermal profile data. As a standard feature, the KIC Explorer has 12 thermocouples to meet your requirements. The ingenious miniature-TC harness design makes this possible, and is less expensive than a standard connector thermocouple. If you prefer to use standard Type-K connector thermocouples, the KIC Explorer is available in a standard Type-K, 7-channel model.
Acquiring more data in a small unit is only the beginning. The KIC Explorer's industry leading performance provides users better data acquisition performance to identify exactly what is going on with each thermal profile and process in the factory. Thermal profile data are conveniently transferred to your computer via a USB connection. Standard AAA batteries power the KIC Explorer and you have the option of using rechargeable batteries if you prefer. The KIC Explorer offers you unmatched performance, flexibility and miniaturization in this new generation of thermal profilers.

Profiling Reduced to a Single Number
The PWI measures the profile's fit to the process window in a mathematical and objective manner by using a single number.
This aids in optimizing the process by comparing and ranking alternative profiles in terms of their fit to the available process window.
The lower the PWI, the more efficient and stable the process!
