thermocouple probe in any liquid. For best results, use a thermocouple probe
designed for each specific application — an immersion probe for liquid or gel,
and an air probe for air measurement.
Observe the following measurement techniques:
– Clean the surface to be measured, and ensure that the probe is securely
