It is fair to say, that any probe that can measure temperature, could be used as an Air Probe, with varying degrees of success. However, Air Probes are specifically designed for this purpose and so have a higher degree of accuracy and response.
Air Probes are often designed to be very quick response with a low thermal mass. The sensor is designed to be as small as possible so that the air temperature is transferred to the probe with minimal temperature loss or gain to maintain a high degree of accuracy.
In certain scenarios, it is beneficial to have a slower response to changes in air temperature, hence having a Damped Air Probe. For example, when you place a probe inside a fridge or freezer, you probably don’t want an alarm going off every time someone opens the door.
The Damped Air Probes do a good job of reflecting the samples in the fridge. All Damped Air Probes are fitted with a 6-Pin Lumberg Connector and a stainless steel Damped Air Probe end, as shown below.
This probe is designed to be used with the following Comark Thermometers:
