Description
The CANchecked TCC06 Thermocouple CAN Converter is a professional temperature monitoring module designed to measure and transmit data from up to six Type-K thermocouples directly over a CAN bus network.
Manufactured in Germany, the TCC06 is designed for motorsport, performance, and advanced vehicle monitoring applications where accurate and reliable temperature data is required. Unlike traditional analog thermocouple converters, the TCC06 communicates temperature measurements digitally over the CAN bus, helping simplify integration with compatible ECUs, displays, data loggers, and other CAN-enabled devices.
The TCC06 supports a temperature measurement range of 0°C to 1250°C (32°F to 2282°F) and features cold-junction compensation and high-resolution 14-bit measurement for precise temperature monitoring.
With integrated Wi-Fi connectivity, users can configure communication settings, adjust CAN bus parameters, perform firmware updates, monitor live temperature data, and access diagnostic functions wirelessly from a compatible smartphone, tablet, or computer.

Thermocouple Temperature Monitoring
The TCC06 is designed to collect temperature data from up to six Type-K thermocouples and transmit the measurements directly through the vehicle's CAN bus network.
This makes the module suitable for monitoring several temperature parameters simultaneously. Depending on the vehicle configuration, the six channels can be used for applications such as exhaust gas temperature (EGT), coolant, oil, intercooler, and cylinder head temperature monitoring.
The 0–1250°C measurement range allows the TCC06 to be used for high-temperature applications where conventional temperature sensors may not be suitable.
CAN Bus Integration
Instead of relying on traditional analog voltage outputs, the TCC06 communicates temperature measurements digitally through the CAN bus.
The module supports CAN 2.0A/B and configurable communication speeds from 125 kbps to 1 Mbps, allowing integration with compatible aftermarket ECUs, displays, data loggers, and other CAN-enabled equipment.
Supported CAN platforms include systems from manufacturers such as Emtron, MaxxECU, MoTeC, Haltech, ECUMaster, and LinkECU, with compatibility dependent on the specific ECU and CAN configuration.
Wi-Fi Configuration
The integrated Wi-Fi interface provides wireless access to the TCC06 configuration and monitoring functions.
Users can connect to the module from a compatible smartphone, tablet, or computer to configure CAN communication settings, adjust supported CAN modes, perform firmware updates, monitor temperature readings, and access diagnostic functions without requiring additional configuration hardware.
Installation
The TCC06 is designed for professional installation into compatible CAN bus systems.
Connect the module to the vehicle's CAN bus network using the integrated 4-pin DTM connection and connect the required Type-K thermocouples to the available measurement channels.
For best results, installation and CAN bus configuration should be performed by a qualified technician familiar with automotive CAN systems and thermocouple wiring.
