Taylor 5927 Refrigerator Freezer Thermometer -20 to 60F

Taylor 5927 Refrigerator Freezer Thermometer

The Taylor 5927 is an analog thermometer built for monitoring refrigerator and freezer temperatures in food-service environments. It reads from -20 to 60 degrees F with an accuracy of plus or minus one degree. The unit can stand upright or hang, and its glass lens protects the dial. NSF certification confirms it meets public-health sanitation standards.

Temperature range and headroom

The scale covers sub-zero freezer storage up to typical refrigerator temperatures, giving headroom for both deep-freeze and chill zones. Readings beyond -20 or above 60 fall outside the calibrated range, so the dial cannot be trusted in extreme cold or warm conditions. The one-degree accuracy is adequate for routine food-safety checks but not for laboratory precision.

NSF certification and mounting flexibility

NSF certification means the thermometer complies with sanitation requirements for commercial kitchens, simplifying health-inspector acceptance. The dual stand-or-hang design lets staff place it on a shelf or suspend it from a wire rack without extra hardware. The plastic case and glass lens contain no metal-detectable components, so it is not suited for production lines that require metal-detectable tools.
