The PS-3201 wireless temperature sensor transmits real-time data so students can continuously monitor, record, and graph temperature measurements on almost any device. When class ends but an experiment continues, students can set the sensor to log data autonomously for days, weeks, or even months, then download the data for later analysis. Overview: Meet a modern thermometer. The wireless temperature sensor transmits real-time data so students can continuously monitor, record, and graph temperature measurements on almost any device. When class ends but an experiment continues, students can set the sensor to log data autonomously for days, weeks, or even months, then download the data for later analysis. This durable wireless sensor has a stainless-steel probe for demanding applications, and its battery can last more than a year*. It can be used in a variety of experiments and activities because it measures subtle but significant temperature changes from chemical reactions, convection, and even skin temperature. Note: The rugged sensor housing/handle has a temperature range of -10°C to 40°C. It cannot withstand the same temperature extremes as the stainless-steel probe. For very low- or high-temperature applications, an electrode support is recommended to keep the sensor properly positioned throughout the experiment. *Battery life is based on typical use in a secondary-school or college laboratory.
