Oakton WD-08491-16 SS Penetration Flexible Thermistor Probe, 10' Lead

The Oakton thermistor probes offer excellent accuracy over the biological temperature range. Thermistor thermometry is based on the principle that metal oxides change resistance with a change in temperature. Our thermistors decrease in resistance as the temperature increases. The resistance change is detected by the meter where it is converted and displayed as a temperature reading. Probes are accurate to +/- 0.2°F from 32 to 150°F (+/- 0.1degC from 0 to 70degC). Electrically isolated probes come with a nondetachable 10-ft lead with phone plug (except as noted). Water-resistant junctions between probe and lead should not be immersed; detachable leads are not water resistant.
