When measuring the resistance of this NTC Thermistor, how much current should be passed through the thermistor?

Use a current 1/10 to 1/20 of the allowable operating current for reference. (Since the resistance of the NTC Thermistor is high at low temperatures, even a small current flow causes the thermistor to generate heat. Therefore, when measuring the resistance, the lowest possible temperature of the equipment must be taken into consideration.
