The StemAids PTFE SCT1/2 Temperature Probe is a chemically resistant laboratory temperature probe designed for use with compatible SCT1 or TC-200D temperature controller systems. It is used for accurate liquid temperature monitoring and control in hotplate stirrer applications, especially where chemically resistant probe protection is required.
Product Description
The StemAids PTFE SCT1/2 Temperature Probe is suitable for laboratories that need reliable temperature sensing in aqueous samples, oil-based samples, chemical solutions, and controlled heating procedures. The PTFE probe body provides chemical resistance, making it useful in applications where a standard stainless-steel probe may not be preferred.
This temperature probe is commonly used with compatible temperature controllers and laboratory hotplate stirrers for sample heating, reagent warming, solution preparation, academic experiments, and research workflows. It supports better control of sample temperature by allowing the controller to read the actual liquid temperature rather than only the hotplate surface temperature.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the StemAids PTFE SCT1/2 Temperature Probe used for?
It is used for measuring and controlling liquid sample temperature with compatible temperature controller and hotplate stirrer systems.
Why is PTFE used in this temperature probe?
PTFE provides chemical resistance, making the probe suitable for laboratory applications where exposure to chemical solutions, oil baths, or reactive media may occur.
Is this probe compatible with all hotplate stirrers?
No. It should be used only with compatible SCT1 or TC-200D temperature controller systems and supported hotplate stirrer models.
Can this probe be used for oil bath temperature monitoring?
Yes, it can be used for oil-based sample or bath monitoring when the temperature and chemical conditions are within the safe operating limits of the controller and probe.
Can it be used in school and college laboratories?
Yes, it is suitable for school, college, university, and training laboratories when used under proper supervision.
How should the probe be positioned in a liquid sample?
The sensing end should be immersed in the liquid without touching the vessel bottom or side wall. This helps achieve a more reliable sample temperature reading.
When should the probe be replaced?
Replace the probe if the PTFE coating is damaged, the cable is worn, the readings become unstable, or the probe no longer connects securely to the controller.
How should the PTFE temperature probe be cleaned?
Clean it gently after use with a suitable laboratory cleaning method. Avoid abrasive cleaning tools and confirm compatibility with the chemicals used during cleaning.
