Ground/Soil Temperature Probe DTS12G

Temperature probe for outdoor use

DTS12 Series Temperature Probes are specially designed for outdoor use, for example with weather stations. The watertight, weather-resistant design ensures reliable temperature measurements in extreme conditions.

DTS12G Ground/Soil Temperature Probe is specially designed for automatic weather stations. It can be used to measure the temperature at different levels beneath the surface. In road weather stations it uses road depth temperature information to produce a 24-hour road surface temperature forecast.

The housing of the platinum resistance (Pt100) sensing element is made of stainless steel. The cable screen attached to the sensor housing provides a good shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI).
