You can log temperature changes in experiments or environmental monitoring setups. What It Is This is a NTC Thermistor, specifically a 10K waterproof temperature probe. It functions as a resistor whose resistance changes significantly with temperature. As the temperature rises, the resistance of this NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermistor decreases, and as the temperature falls, its resistance increases. This change in resistance can then be measured and converted into a temperature reading by compatible devices. It comes with a 1-meter cable, making it suitable for various temperature sensing applications. Key Uses & Applications The waterproof design of this 10K thermistor probe allows for accurate temperature measurement in environments where moisture is present. It is compatible with W1209 and W1401 temperature controllers, making it ideal for integration into existing systems. Common applications include monitoring temperatures in liquids, soil, or other damp conditions. Its function is to provide precise temperature data for control systems, ensuring equipment operates within specified thermal ranges. How to Choose When selecting a thermistor, consider the required resistance, B-constant, and cable length for your application. This product offers a 10K resistance and a B-Constant of 3950K, along with a 1-meter cable. Ensure these specifications match your temperature sensing needs and the requirements of your controller, such as the W1209 or W1401. The waterproof probe material is crucial for outdoor or wet environments. Also, consider the quantity needed; this product is supplied in packs of 10 pieces. Grit / Spec Guide This 10K NTC thermistor features a 1% resistance tolerance for accurate temperature readings. It has a B-Constant of 3950K, which defines its temperature-resistance characteristic. The probe is waterproof, designed for reliable operation in damp or submerged conditions. It comes with a 1-meter cable, providing flexibility for installation. Compatibility with W1209 and W1401 ensures it can be integrated into various temperature control setups. The package type is DIP. Care & Safety Handle the thermistor probe carefully to avoid damage to the waterproof casing or the cable. Ensure connections to compatible controllers like the W1209 or W1401 are secure to maintain accurate temperature readings and prevent electrical issues. Do not exceed the specified operating temperature range of the thermistor, as this can permanently alter its resistance characteristics. While the probe is waterproof, avoid excessive bending or pulling of the cable at the probe connection point to maintain its integrity.
