Surface Temperature Sensor
- Order number: STS-BTA
- Supplier Name: Vernier Science Education
- Supplier Number: STS-BTA
- Warranty(Years): 5
The Surface Temperature Sensor is designed for use in situations in which low thermal mass or flexibility is required, or for a skin temperature measurement.
The Surface Temperature Sensor has an exposed thermistor that results in an extremely rapid response time. This design allows for use in air and water. For temperature measurements in harsher environments that require a more durable probe, we recommend our Stainless Steel Temperature Probe (TMP-BTA).
