About this item
The Stainless Steel Temperature Probe can be used as a thermometer for experiments in chemistry, physics, biology, Earth science, environmental science, and more.
- Temperature sensor: 20 kΩ NTC Thermistor
- Body is constructed from grade 316 stainless steel, which provides a high level of corrosion resistance for use in the science classroom
- Probe can be left continuously in water at temperatures within the range of –40 to 150°C
This probe uses the 20 kΩ NTC Thermistor, which is a variable resistor. When the temperature increases, the resistance decreases non-linearly.
The probe handle is constructed of molded plasticized Santoprene®. While this material is very chemical resistant, we recommend that you avoid submerging the probe beyond the stainless steel portion.
Maximum temperature that the sensor can tolerate without damage: 150 °C
