What type of probe should I use?
The type of probe you use depends upon your application. Here are some general guidelines for different types of probes.
Penetration/Immersion (F) General purpose probe used for penetration and immersion; can be used for air, but is much slower than an air probe.
Need to select the tip type that best cuits the application.
Contact/Surface (C) Contact probes are used to measure surface temperatures. Penetration probes, with the exception of the chisel tip, can’t measure
surface temperatures. Need to select the tip type that best suits the application
Air/Gas (G) Air probes measure the air or gas temperatures. They respond significantly faster than penetration or contact probes in air. Need to select
the tip type that best fits the application.

Use for penetation into solids and immersion
into semi-solids & liquids.
Pointed: Can be used in air with slower response
Chisel: Can be used in air and on surfaces with
slower response
Tapered: Heavy duty, large diameter shaft for
bend resistant
