Description
Stainless Steel Housing Immersion Penetration Probe.
Pointed tip stainless steel NTC thermistor temperature sensor
features
Long stainless steel housing, with pointed tip, for easily
penetrating and piercing soft and semi-frozen materials, handling
for multi-point temperature sensing. Can be used in food
processing, oven, liquid (water) boiler. Also ideal for soil and
ground measurements.
Fast response.
Can operate in high temperature media.
NTC Thermistor can be assembled in housing in a variety of
configurations for temperature sensing, measurement, detection,
indicator, monitoring and control. Thermistor temperature sensor
probe assemblies can conveniently attach to or be an integral part
of any system to monitor or control temperature.The choice of
assembly is dependent on the application. The primary factors which
determine the optimum configuration of a thermistor assembly are
the operating environment, mounting, time response and minimum
dissipation constant.
The two factors which do vary considerably with thermistor sensor
probe assembly design are time constant and dissipation constant.
The time constant will typically be of greater duration in
encapsulated thermistors. This is, of course, due to additional
mass surrounding the thermistor element; therefore, extending the
thermal transfer time. Dissipation constant will also be greater in
assemblies. The additional housing mass serves well as a heat sink.
Greater power is therefore required to induce self-heating. Both
time constant and dissipation constant will vary with the selected
thermistor and housing. Heat transfer properties of the housing,
thermistor location, mass and wire type determine these constants.
