The recommended soldering temperature is 260°C (500°F) for 10 seconds, with a peak temperature of 240°C (464°F) for 5 seconds.
Handle the thermistor by the body, not the leads, to prevent damage. Store them in a dry, cool place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
The thermal response time is approximately 10-15 seconds in still air, and 5-10 seconds in moving air.
Yes, but with caution. The thermistor is designed to operate in a relative humidity of 0-90% RH. However, high humidity may affect its accuracy and long-term reliability.
Calibration is not required, as the thermistor is factory-calibrated. However, you may need to perform a one-point calibration to adjust for any offset errors in your specific application.
