Ashcroft 50EI60E Dial Thermometer Every-Angle

Application Scope

The Ashcroft 50EI60E is a dial thermometer built for industrial and mechanical temperature monitoring. Its adjustable-angle stem lets technicians position the 5 in dial for clear reading in tight or awkward installations. The 304 stainless steel housing and glass lens suit harsh environments where vibration or corrosion would damage lesser instruments.

Interface Limits

The 1/2 in NPT connection fits standard process threads but cannot mate with larger or smaller fittings without adapters not supplied here. The 6 in stem length sets a fixed insertion depth; vessels or pipes requiring deeper or shallower immersion will need a different model. Glass lens and mechanical movement mean the unit cannot transmit data electronically or survive severe impact.

Capacity Headroom

The dual scale covers 0 to 250 °F and -20 to 120 °C, handling common steam, water and oil processes within that window. Temperatures above 250 °F or below -20 °C exceed the calibrated range and risk permanent damage. The fixed 6 in stem and single NPT size limit use to equipment matching those dimensions; longer reach or flanged connections are not supported.
