1. INTRODUCTION

We improved our popular RT with a high temperature rubber front panel seal
and we increased the upper range. It’s water resistant at higher temperatures so
dishwasher use is no problem. With MIN/MAX features you can record the peak
dishwasher temperature.

Great for construction and food service use with its durable design and
convenient probe cover and pocket clip. The Hand Held Temperature Indicator RT
includes a penetration probe tip for easy insertion into your products. You’ll find a lot of
look-a-like thermometers, but none that can match the durability of our RT.
