Requires an interface and software, sold separately

The Surface Temperature Sensor is designed for use in situations in which low thermal mass or flexibility is required, or for a skin temperature measurement.

Temperature range: –25 to 125°C (–13 to 257°F) Maximum temperature that the sensor can tolerate without damage: 150°C Typical Resolution: 0.08°C (–25 to 0°C) 0.03°C (0 to 40°C) 0.1°C (40 to 100°C) 0.25°C (100 to 125°C) Temperature sensor: 20 kΩ NTC Thermistor Accuracy: ±0.2°C at 0°C, ±0.5°C at 100°C Response time (time for 90% change in reading) 50 seconds (in still air) 20 seconds (in moving air) Probe dimensions: Probe length (handle plus body) 15.5 cm Important: For use in air and water only. For temperature measurements in harsher environments, we recommend the Stainless Steel Temperature Sensor.
