DE-305 Thermocouple Thermometer
Our full-featured DE-305 is a breakthrough
for the entire field of temperature probe measurement.
Using the popular K type thermocouple, this new instrument
breaks price barriers and maintains all of the performance
characteristics of more expensive instruments.
The MAX button is useful for cold room monitoring. Just hit the
MAX button and the unit will tell you the maximum temperature
sensed since the button was pushed. Any type of K thermocouple
probe can be used with the instrument. A wide range of
specialized probes are available for virtually every temperature
monitoring application for food processing, storage or retail.
The unit is supplied with a convenient "flip out" table stand.
The temperature HOLD function is useful to "freeze" a particular
reading on the display for later recording. |

Mini-K
Compact Thermocouple Thermometer
Our Newest Thermocouple
Digital Thermometer proves that good things can come in small
packages...
The all new Mini-K thermocouple thermometer will accept ANY
mini-male plug probe; immersion, surface, air or bead. It is
small and accuracy qualifies it for a wide range of food safety
and related applications.
Probe measurement -83.2° F to 1999°F (-64 to 1400° C). Accuracy
of Mini-K thermometer is ±1% of reading or 1.8°F (1°C)
whichever is greater plus probe accuracy. Low battery icon warns
of need for battery replacement.
You can select C or F display and use the HOLD feature to save a
reading. Roughly the size of a cell phone, the AQA 1810 features
a battery life of 100 hours of continuous use and auto shut off
after 15 seconds. |

AquaTuff™ Thermocouple Thermometer

This thermometer was originally designed for a well
known fast food chain and was specifically made to conform to
their exacting standards for durability, precision and ease of
use.
Now, with the new AquaTuff designation, the quality has gone
even higher.
The unit is highly durable and is completely waterproof. The
body unit is high impact ABS plastic. The operating buttons and
face of the unit are sealed with a thick and durable membrane
panel for ease of cleaning. The whole unit is secure for
substantial impact resistance and use in wet and dirty
environments.
AquaTuff not only is fully waterproof, it is highly accurate,
convenient to use, and about as rugged as you can get in a
precision instrument. Over the years, nothing else has come
close. This latest in thermocouple design, the AquaTuff™ is the
result of years of design refinement based on field experience.
The unit is also easy to hold, as the extrusion body has
ergonomically designed ribs for a good grip. Response is rapid
and steady. This is a very high quality instrument that will
last for years and years of heavy industrial use. |

AquaTuff High Accuracy with Integral Wrap Cord Probe
This is truly a legendary series of instruments. Starting with
the AquaTuff features, these instruments achieve a higher level
of accuracy by compensating for an integral probe...each unit is
individually pre-calibrated.
The unit is designed to allow the probe handle to "snap in" to
the case (as shown at right) when stored. Cord wraps around the
body of the unit in a specially designed retainer groove.
Global Sensors has the best pricing anywhere on this remarkable
tool. The AquaTuff™ series as created to answer to the need for
a very high accuracy thermocouple thermometer that can also
withstand substantial abuse, including immersion. No other
instrument even comes close to the unique combination of
characteristics of this product line. Higher accuracy is
achieved by using an matched probe (use only a Global Sensors
replacement probe) that is calibrated specifically with the
thermometer response.

Operation is simple with only two buttons on the control
surface. |

NEW Super Accurate Digital Thermometer

This remarkable digital
thermometer is actually not based on thermocouple technology.
It uses high accuracy RTD sensor probes that are fitted
individually to the base unit. Each unit is certificated
to ISO certified lab standards and documentation of NIST
traceability is provided.
This is the unit you would use to perform all calibration checks
necessary in an operation. If you have this unit, you do
not have to send your temperature measuring units out for lab
certification. As long as your own certificate is no older
than one year, you are operating on the same basis as a
certified lab.
Temperatures are reported to three decimal places for both °C
and °F readings.
An
option that is provided with this unit is the capability to
operate it as a temperature logger. Call us to ask about
the pricing and availability of the logging kit. The port
in the side of the unit is designed to connect to a PC computer
serial port and send logged temperature data to a spreadsheet.
The cable and software logging kit is a separate purchase and is
NOT included with the unit as priced here. Call us for pricing
and availability.

High Accuracy Platinum RTD Thermometer
Not
quite at the same level of accuracy of the Super Accurate
(above) but quite capable of serving as a reference standard for
a multiple thermometer operation.
Or, if a rugged unit is needed that provides higher than normal
accuracy, this is the unit. This model has been around for
a long time, and users who are familiar with its unique
combination of accuracy and durability keep coming back for more
units.
The unit has the same wrap cord
stowage feature as the AquaTuff units (see illustration above).
You have to try hard to break this cable. This custom fabricated
cable is designed for toughest food usage. On the inside are the
insulated Copper conductors, followed by a sheath of Kevlar® high tensile-strength strands, then an outer layer of
Teflon®, next a woven metal shielding, then finally a silicone
jacket in an FDA-approved food safe formula. The entry
into the probe handle is steel protected and molded in. |
