A probe to mesure the water temp

Nomad2000 · 07-09-2002, 04:16 PM

Could anybody help me? Where ( in UK) can I buy a probe to mesure the water temp and how should I fit it so that not to prevent the water flow?
Thank everybody

Are you using a resevoir or an inline system? I was a chef once upon a time and had a food thermometer lying around. So I just drillined a little hole in the top of my res and used that. Works pretty good, except that the plastic was melted while in use in the kitchen.

I would imagine that if you have an inline system you could rig up something similar with you're airtrap or "T" or something. You can get these thermometers anywhere they sell kitchen products (pot, pans, etc.) for about $10 (US).

you can use a digi doc 5 probe. they can be water proofed and mounted in a T or in your res.

I thought about that for my own system (b4 the kitchen thermometer). How do you water proof the probe?
