The Fast Response (FR) Thermapen pocket thermometers are 'probably' the fastest reading contact thermometers on the market today. The true temperature of a product can be tested in just four seconds by the FR Thermapen.The response time of any thermometer is dependant on many factors, the mass of the sensing tip, heat transfer and, most importantly, the state of the substance being measured.
• guaranteed to read in just 4 seconds
• over 50% faster than traditional probes
• two models 0.1°C or 1°C resolution
• one handed operation

With both air and liquid, agitation is crucial to rapid response. The ETI calibration laboratory has tested the FR Thermapen in a stirred water bath with amazing results. Each FR Thermapen reached 100% of the test temperature in four seconds.
The FR Thermapen incorporates a clear digital display with a precise read-out of temperature over the range of -49.9 to +199.9°C or -50 to +300°C with a 0.1°C or 1°C resolution. Both low battery and open circuit indication are also displayed, when applicable. The Thermapen is powered by a 12 volt MN21 alkaline battery with a minimum expectancy of 100 hours and is supplied with a detachable wrist strap, battery and instruction card.
The Thermapen FR digital thermometer utilises a type K thermocouple sensor that is faster to respond to changes in temperature than most comparable thermometers. This is due to the thermocouple sensor's small physical size; being small in size also allows minimal immersion depth. The other significant benefit of using a thermocouple sensor is the durable and robust nature of the sensor element.

Thermapen 1 & 5 thermometers
The Thermapen thermometers are designed for reliability and ease of use in industry today. The thermometers incorporate a clear digital display with a precise read-out of temperature over the range of -49.9 to +199.9°C or -50 to +300°C and a 0.1°C or 1°C resolution. Both low battery and open circuit indication are also displayed, when applicable..
The Thermapen is lightweight, at less than 100 grams including battery and probe. The casing is manufactured from high impact ABS plastic designed to cope with routine day-to-day applications. The Thermapen 1 and 5 thermometers incorporate a choice of one of three different styles of probe, a penetration, surface or air probe. An auto-power on/off facility turns the instrument on when the probe is in use and automatically off after five minutes, maximising battery life. The probe conveniently folds back through 180 degrees into the side of the instrument when not in use, turning the instrument off. Each Thermapen is supplied with a detachable wrist strap, battery and instruction card.
Tens of thousands of Thermapens are in use all around the world. Chefs, caterers, food processors, laboratory technicians, plumbers and many other industries like the convenience, reliability and accuracy that makes the Thermapen one of the most popular of all professional thermometers.
accessories
The protective PVC wallet and zip pouch, both with belt loops, help to protect instruments against accidental damage. The wipes are an essential for keeping your Thermapen clean.
