MADGETECH-HiTemp140-Series-Thermal-Processing-Data-Logger-fig- (2)Product Overview

  • The HiTemp140-CF combines the robust features of the standard HiTemp140 with added versatility for direct integration into canning processes. This high-precision temperature data logger, designed for harsh environments, is constructed from durable stainless steel and is submersible, making it ideal for use with retorts. It can withstand temperatures up to +140 °C (+284 °F) and maintains an accuracy of ±0.1 °C (±0.18 °F).
  • This variant features a threaded end for seamless compatibility with both the CF202 Canning Fitting and the ThermaLock-Pro Canning Fitting, enhancing its utility in food processing applications.
  • The HiTemp140-CF can store up to 32,256 readings and includes a rigid external probe that can measure temperatures up to +260 °C (+500 °F), with custom probe lengths available up to 7 inches. Equipped with non-volatile solid-state memory, it ensures data retention even if the battery is discharged, recording date and time-stamped readings. The HiTemp140-CF is perfectly suited for continuous use in both wet and dry environments up to +140 °C (+284 °F).

Water Resistance
The HiTemp140-CF is fully submersible and is rated IP68. It can be placed in environments with up to 230 feet (70 m) of water.
