Can it be use to measure airflow inside a hot air oven

I do not see any way that would work. Plus I do not find that small amounts of air flow is measurable with this unit. Not positive of that, but my experience has been small amount do not move the wheel. Hope this helps.

No, It will not, The probe will not fit into the hole in the oven. If you want to replace the thermometer that came with the oven, order the replacement through their spare parts manual.

Although I haven't tried it I believe it would work. But it would only measure the surface temp of the food. Not the interior temp.

I have used this unit in an oven grill etc-I think it would easily measure temp in most any atmosphere-The only thing is the braided line on this unit cannot be in direct contact with the heating element of whatever you are cooking with-I would recommend looking this units manual up online for a more reliable answer-All said though we have been very impressed with this unit-Well made professional grade-

The dual answer is yes. The device has both a clip on sensor for oven temp as well as an internal probe for reading food temp. Both temps are simultaneously displayed. The accuracy seems spot on.

No, it is not suitable for that application. You might want to try researching hydroponics ventilation to get an idea of what's out there. It is important for you to determine what kind of airflow you desire. Especially if it needs filtration for dust, smoke, or grease (cooking).

It won't / can't read air temperature, but if you open the oven and point it at the rack or an oven wall, it will give you the surface temperature of that object.

I suppose it depends on what you are making. I've used it to test the temperature of Hollandaise sauce and it worked fine for that purpose.

Yes, especially if you are smoking meats. If you have a very hot fire I would be careful. I use mine in a electric smoker and the oven @450.I have used it on my Sons Charcoal grill but I just used it to check temps. NOT left in the meat. Hope this helps

For proper operation, the oven must have sufficient air flow. Allow 3-inches (7.6 cm) of space on both sides of the oven and 1-inch (2.5 cm) of space on top of the oven.

I'm sure if you measure your inner oven dimensions that should tell you. Just make sure if you have a protruding convection oven fan you allow for that. if your inner dimensions are not at least 17 1/4" X 25 1/4" you have problems. The convection fan came back to haunt me when we lost over an inch from it protruding out from the center of the back of our new wide and deep oven. SURPRISE!. Our 22 1/2" by 19" oven turned out to be 22 1/2" by 18" thanks to the convection fan housing protruding out an inch..

We use an instant thermometer with no problem. It is not an oven as it has no insulation. I would not think an oven thermometer would be desirable because what you really need to know is the temperature of the food you are cooking rather than the temperature of the surrounding space. In an oven food starts to cook at about 180F and the length of time it takes to cook is very dependent on the amount of liquid the food contains.

As others have said, it probably will not do what you are probably looking for since it will only provide a surface temperature. However, if you want to know the temperature of a frying pan, or the interior of an oven, or the inside of your freezer, theses are all things the unit can do.

If only are only intending to measure the superficial temperature, (not the inner temperature of the product) then the answer is "YES". I often use this device to check the temperature of the marmalade process to see if the packaging temperature is adequate.

Not sure, we bought this thermometer to use in our old refrigerator we use for smoking fish. We drilled a hole in the door and it worked great so we could see how warm it got inside the smoker.

No. Its use is based on an a sensor component (air monitoring system), versus the actual combustion process. As long as there is a mass air flow sensor it would work.

While I have only used this thermometer for the BBQ grill, I suspect it can also be used for indoor oven. It comes with two probes - one for meat and the other for internal temperatue (Grill or oven). I am very pleaed with this product, hope the info helps.
