The 109 is a rugged, accurate probe that measures air, soil, and water temperature for a variety of applications. It consists of a thermistor encapsulated in an epoxy-filled aluminum housing. The housing protects the thermistor, allowing you to bury the 109 in soil or submerge it in water. The 109 measures from -50° to +70°C, and it outputs a 0 to 2.2 V signal when using 2500 mV excitation.
- Measures air, soil or water temperature
- 109-L Temperature Probe designed to operate with the CR200 data loggers
- Incorporates a thermistor as the active element
