temperature Probes (continued)<br />

thermocouple<br />

the thermocouple uses type-K thermocouple wire to<br />

measure temperatures between -200˚c and 1400˚c.<br />

• Measure liquid nitrogen temperatures at -196˚c and<br />

fl ame temperatures up to 1400˚C.<br />

• internal ice-point compensation means you do not need<br />

to place a reference wire in an ice-water bath.<br />

• individually calibrated.<br />

range:<br />

-200 to 1400°c<br />

Temperature cycles of an oven<br />

INNOVATIVE USES<br />

• Compare the temperature at<br />

different parts of a fl ame<br />

• Compare the temperature of<br />

different fl ames<br />

• Temperature cycles of an oven<br />

turbidity<br />

sensor<br />

Use the turbidity Sensor to measure the turbidity of freshwater<br />

or seawater samples in ntU (the standard unit used<br />

by most water collection agencies and organizations).<br />

• Small, sleek design and simple setup make it easy to use<br />

at the collection site or in the classroom.<br />

• Monitor precipitate formation or algae and yeast<br />

populations in chemistry and biology classes.<br />

• includes high-quality hach Stablcal 100 ntU standard<br />

for quick calibration and a high-grade glass cuvette for<br />

your water sample. a set of six additional glass turbidity<br />

Bottles are available (orDer coDe trB-Bot, $27).<br />

Spectral response of the UV Sensors<br />

uva and uvb<br />

sensors<br />

we have two different sensors for measuring the<br />

intensity of ultraviolet radiation. one responds primarily<br />

to UVa radiation (320 to 375 nm), and another responds<br />

primarily to UVB radiation (290 to 320 nm). UVB radiation<br />

is commonly associated with sunburns, cataracts, and skin<br />

cancer. UVa radiation, while responsible for suntans, is<br />

also a cause of premature aging of the skin and some<br />

types of skin cancer. which sensor you use will depend<br />

upon the particular experiment you want to perform.<br />
