To view the full MadgeTech product line, visit our website at madgetech.com.
Product Overview
The HiTemp140-FP is a durable, user-friendly high temperature data logger
featuring a long, flexible RTD probe with a narrow diameter and stainless
steel tip, making it ideal for use in steam sterilization and lyophilization
processes.
Commonly used for mapping, validation and monitoring of high temperature
surfaces, this stainless steel data logger is available in several models. The
flexible probe is coated with PFA insulation and can withstand temperatures up
to +260 °C (+500 °F).
The HiTemp140-FP probe design is narrow and lightweight making it ideal for
placement within small vials, tubing, test tube and other small diameter or
delicate applications. Because of the flexible probe, the risks of breakage
(both vial and probe) generally associated with stainless steel probe loggers
are diminished and the location and placement of the probe is easy to
manipulate.
The Trigger Settings feature of the HiTemp140-FP allows users to configure
high and low temperature thresholds that when met or exceeded, will
automatically start or stop recording data to memory. This data logger is
capable of storing up to 32,256 date and time stamped readings and features a
non-volatile solid state memory which retains data even if the battery becomes
discharged.
Water Resistance
The HiTemp140-FP is rated IP68 and is fully submersible.
