PRODUCT USER GUIDE
Product Overview
The MicroTemp is a miniature, submersible, self-contained
temperature data logger. Only 2.6 inch (66 mm) tall and
0.7 inch (18 mm) in diameter, this data logger can easily fit
into the smallest spaces. It can even fit down the neck of
most beverage bottles! Don’t let the diminutive size fool
you — this is an industrial grade instrument which boasts
an accuracy specification of ±0.5 °C and will operate in
temperatures from -40 °C to +80 °C. Its food grade stainless
steel casing makes it inert to most common fluids and
gases. It operates with user-replaceable batteries for
up one year (typical use) and downloads data (32,767
readings) quickly to your PC.
Water Resistance
The MicroTemp is fully submersible and is rated IP68. It
can be placed in environments with up to 230 feet (70 m)
of water.
