Type S thermocouples are composed of a positive leg which is 90% platinum and 10% Rhodium, and a negative leg which is 100% platinum.
It is usable from 32F to 2700F. (0C to 1480C).
It has a different EMF output than Type K thermocouples (meaning the same temperature will produce different voltages to the control which must then be interpreted differently).
That different scale requires both a simple hardware configuration change and a software change to take effect so it can not be done inadvertently.
At temperatures used in pottery kilns (even the highest 2350F) these thermocouples can last for a very long time (as long as they are not mechanically broken).
