The Agilent/Keysight E2308A is a thermistor temperature probe engineered for precision liquid temperature measurement across industrial and laboratory environments. Built around a 5 kΩ thermistor element at 25°C and housed in a stainless steel case, the probe delivers sub-degree accuracy with fast thermal response. The 1.5-inch probe tip and 36-inch lead assembly with dual banana plugs integrate directly with Keysight handheld DMMs and benchtop instruments.
