Digital Temperature Probe
The 300 Digital Temperature Probe has a 1.5mm thin tip for fast response. With large digits the 300 is an easy-to-read and easy-to-use thermometer for quick checks when cooking a range of foods.
There is a hold button on the 300 which enables you to hold the digital reading on the screen while you note a measurement.
The 300 Digital Temperature Probe is also water-resistant.
The 300 Digital Temperature Probe is a basic reduced (thin) tip Thermometer with Biocote Antimicrobial Protection. The 300 is slim and lightweight, which makes it perfect for slipping into shirt, trouser or apron pockets between use. It has a 127mm / 5″ long stem and a 1.5 mm / 0.6″ diameter then tip, making it suitable for probing thinner foods. The 300 Digital Temperature Probe is field calibratable and features °F/°C switchable temperature scales/ranges, a data hold function and a low battery indicator. You can either use the ON/OFF button to conserve battery life or let the unit automatically shut off after a short time. This Pocket Digital Thermometer includes a protective case with pocket clip and a battery.
The 300 is also available with a Rubber Boot, click here.
Field Calibration Procedures
The 300 is only calibratable in a slush ice solution (60 percent crushed ice to 40 percent tap water) or a water bath. Do not attempt to calibrate in any other manner
Immerse the stem of the thermometer to at least half its length in the slush ice solution
Wait for the reading to become stable (usually ±2° of 32°F or ±1° of 0°C)
Press and hold the CAL button for 8 seconds to begin calibration
CAL will be displayed for two seconds and calibration at 0°C / 32°F is completed
Remove the thermometer from the ice water and continue to take measurements
Note: CAL will be displayed any time the D-H key is pressed for 8 seconds, but the thermometer will not be re-calibrated unless the tip is inserted in ice water
°F/°C Switchable
The 300 Digital Temperature Probe features °F/°C switchable temperature scales/ranges. With the thermometer turned OFF, press and hold the ON/OFF button. Release when the desired scale is shown.
Note: This is the procedure for any Pocket Digital Thermometer that does not have an °F/°C scale button.
