Q: What types of products can be measured using the Extended Penetration Temperature Probe?
A: The probe is designed for measuring the temperature of liquids, semi-solids, and other materials that can be penetrated safely. Its 300mm stainless steel stem allows users to take measurements deeper within a product rather than relying on surface temperatures alone.
Q: Why would I choose a 300mm penetration probe instead of a standard-length probe?
A: A 300mm penetration probe is useful when measuring the temperature of larger products, deeper containers, tanks, or bulk materials. The extended stem helps reach the centre of the product where temperature can differ significantly from the surface.
Q: How quickly does the probe respond to temperature changes?
A: The probe has a response time of less than three seconds. This allows users to obtain stable readings quickly when carrying out routine quality control checks, production monitoring, or incoming goods inspections.
Q: What temperature range can this probe measure?
A: The probe is designed to measure temperatures between -60°C and 250°C. This range makes it suitable for chilled products, ambient processes, hot liquids, and many food production and industrial applications.
Q: Is this probe suitable for measuring the temperature of liquids?
A: Yes. The probe is specifically designed for insertion into liquids and is commonly used for measuring temperatures in containers, vessels, tanks, and other liquid-based processes. The long stainless steel stem helps reach deeper measurement points.
Q: Can this penetration probe be used for food production applications?
A: Yes. The probe is suitable for measuring the temperature of semi-solid and liquid food products where internal product temperature needs to be verified. Typical applications include sauces, soups, dairy products, and other food processing operations requiring insertion measurements.
Q: What thermocouple type does this probe use?
A: The probe uses a Type K thermocouple sensor. Type K thermocouples are widely used because they offer a broad operating temperature range, good durability, and compatibility with many thermometers, indicators, and data logging systems.
Q: When should I choose a penetration probe instead of a surface probe?
A: Choose a penetration probe when the temperature inside a product is more important than the surface temperature. Internal measurements are often required for process control, quality assurance, and food safety, whereas surface probes are intended for measuring external temperatures only.
Q: What is the advantage of the 3.3mm probe diameter?
A: The 3.3mm diameter provides a good balance between strength and responsiveness. It is robust enough for routine industrial and food production use while still allowing relatively fast response times when inserted into liquids and semi-solid materials.
Q: Which industries commonly use long penetration thermocouple probes?
A: Long penetration thermocouple probes are commonly used in food manufacturing, catering, laboratory work, quality control, process industries, agricultural operations, and industrial production environments where accurate internal temperature measurements are required.
