Industrial temperature monitoring

The Ashcroft 50EI60E bi-metallic dial thermometer measures from -30 to 50 degrees Celsius and -20 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit. Its adjustable every-angle head lets technicians read the dial from any position. A 4 inch stem reaches into pipes or vessels through a 1/2 inch NPT connection. Stainless steel housing and a glass lens withstand harsh plant environments.

Calibration-ready documentation

The unit ships without a NIST-traceable certificate so quality teams must arrange their own validation if regulatory compliance requires it. This absence means the thermometer suits internal process checks but not audited custody-transfer points. Operators simply mount the instrument and begin recording temperatures immediately.

Straightforward pipe installation

Thread the 1/2 inch NPT fitting into a matching process tapping using standard pipe sealant. The every-angle dial rotates freely after tightening so the face stays readable. Common issues include cross-threading the stainless connection or over-torquing which can distort the bimetal coil and shift readings.

Questions about this item

Does the bi-metallic coil inside the 50EI60E ever need recalibration or replacement?

The stainless-steel housing and glass lens protect the bi-metallic element, and the unit ships with a NIST-traceable certificate, so no periodic recalibration is required under normal use.

What stops the 50EI60E from reading higher than 120 °F during continuous exposure?

The dial scale ends at 120 °F and 50 °C; sustained temperatures beyond that range exceed the calibrated span and can permanently distort the bi-metallic coil.

How hot does the stainless-steel stem get when the thermometer sits in a 120 °F process all day?

The 4-inch stainless-steel stem will equilibrate to the process temperature, so it reaches roughly 120 °F and conducts that heat to the housing and glass lens.
