Akiba Korobun] Heat-resistant and waterproof digital thermometers that can measure everything from frozen foods to deep-fried foods are now on sale.

Akiba Koho" is an irregular column introducing PC parts and digital gadgets that the Akiba Research Institute staff found interesting during interviews.

Heat-resistant and waterproof digital thermometer "CT-300WP" is now on sale at Toei Radio Radio Department Store.

CT-300WP is a pen-type digital thermometer with heat-resistant and waterproof specifications. The sensor part can measure temperatures from -40°C to +250°C. It features the ability to measure a wide variety of items, from frozen food to deep-frying oil.

In addition, a tapered sensor with a 2.5 mm tip provides quick response, and a cap on the sensor part can be inserted into the main body and used as a handle to safely measure hot fried food oil and other items.

The main specifications are as follows: sensor type is thermistor stainless steel probe . The measuring range is -40 to +250°C with a resolution of 0.1°C. Measurement accuracy is ±1°C ( -10.0 to +100.0°C), ±2°C (-30.0 to -10.1°C, +100.1 to +200.0°C), and ±4°C (-40.0 to -30.1°C, +200.1 to +250.0°C). Other features include sampling: 1 time/second, operating temperature/humidity: 0 to +40°C (with no condensation), storage temperature/humidity: -20 to +65°C (with no condensation). Power supply is 1 x LR44 (1.5V) button cell battery with a battery life of approximately 1 year. Waterproof function is IPX7 compliant.

B ody size is 36 (width) x 16 (depth) x 217 (length) mm (sensor length: 110 mm). It weighs approximately 45g (including battery and cap).


Like the Bluetooth-compatible thermometer logger "CT-621BT" released earlier this month, it cannot do advanced things such as displaying measured data in a graph on a smartphone or managing it in CSV format, but it is sufficient for temperature control during cooking or measuring soil temperature in gardening. If you are interested in easily measuring the temperature of various objects, why not visit the store?

The price is 2,680 yen (tax included).
