Thermometer for electronic testing

[grizedale]

Hello,

Can this thermometer be placed inside an oven or freezer at 80degC and -30degC respectively.

..the datasheet does not say whether it needs a probe to go into the measurement area, or whether the device itself can be physically placed in there.

Won't it be easier to have the probe inside the oven/freezer, and the device itself outside where you can access it?

 

[grizedale]

not really, we use standard ovens and its too hard to get another cable running out. (there are already supply cables running in.

How will you view it? Neither a camera nor an electronic thermometer is rated for these situations.
That's why a probe is strongly recommended.

and it is very unlikely that the thermometer can work over that temperature range - just the external probe (and I am not really certain about that!).
