Bimetal thermometer for -20 °F to 120 °F
This dial thermometer measures temperatures from -20 °F to 120 °F and from -30 °C to 50 °C. It is built for environmental and mechanical testing where a rugged, direct-reading instrument is required. The 304 stainless steel housing resists corrosion in harsh settings. The 5 inch dial provides a clear scale for quick checks.
Thermals noise and power draw
The bimetal sensing element needs no external power so there is no electrical noise or heat contribution. A 4 inch stem inserts into the process and the bottom-mounted 1/2 inch NPT connection seals directly in pipework. Glass lens protects the dial from splashes and dust. Operation stays passive across the full range.
NIST-traceable calibration included
Each unit ships with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate so readings are documented from day one. The certificate removes the need for a separate lab visit before first use. Stainless construction and glass lens mean the calibration holds up in wet or vibrating environments. No software or batteries are required to maintain accuracy.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 1/2 in NPT stem and what step is often missed?
Thread the 1/2 in NPT stem into the fitting, apply thread sealant, and tighten with a wrench on the hex. The step often missed is ensuring the 4 in stem reaches the flow for accurate reading.
What maintenance will the glass lens and 304 stainless steel housing need later?
Clean the glass lens with a soft cloth and mild detergent. Inspect the 304 stainless steel housing and stem for corrosion or damage periodically. Recalibrate if readings drift from known reference points.
At what temperature limit does the bimetal coil reach its maximum range under sustained use?
The upper limit is 120 degrees F (50 degrees C). Sustained exposure at or near this maximum can affect the bimetal coil's long-term accuracy and response time.
