Product Introduction

TP-USB Series Optical Probe was designed by Tespro in 2005. The up-to-date technologies and the general application property for almost all kinds of electric meters and thermo meters make it very unique among the optical probe families.Tespro China has always adhered to the principle of quality first, and this product has always adopted the original USB chip from FTDI in the UK, which can achieve plug and play for all operating systems without the need to install any drivers, making it more convenient for customers to use. At the same time, we insist on using wide temperature cable materials to ensure that the product can work normally between - 40 ° C and + 70 ° C. For 20 years, as always, adhering to quality is our pursuit. TP-USB was originally designed and manufactured by Tespro Electronics Co., Ltd. (Tespro China).
