These appliance probes use the latest thin film technology and high quality materials, with tight process and production controls, special bonding and packaging techniques thereby ensuring OEM manufacturers a product of unmatched reliability and performance. They provide stable temperatures over long periods of use.
These probes use an RTD sensing element - a thin film platinum temperature detector, specially developed for fast response and calibrated to DIN 43760 (BS 1904 and IEC 751). The element is protected by fiberglass insulation and mounted in a 304 stainless steel tube of diameter 0.197in (5mm). A variety of tube lengths are available. A mounting bracket with slots is press fitted to the tube to facilitate easy installation and a 2-lead wire extension (to varying lengths) is supplied in 24 AWG insulated nickel wire. Wire terminations are either plain or 2-conductor component receptacle.
Designed for cooking appliances and for use with electronic time and temperature controls.
