Purpose & Audience

The Value Brand pocket thermometer measures temperatures from zero to 220 degrees Fahrenheit with a five-inch stainless-steel stem. It suits food-service professionals, lab technicians and hobbyists who need a quick, analogue reading without batteries.

Installation & Common Issues

Slip the stem into the product or environment, wait for the pointer to settle, and read the dial through the magnifying domed lens. The polycarbonate lens resists fogging, but steam or grease can obscure the scale if the sheath is not used between readings.

Sustained-Load Behaviour

The bimetallic movement maintains its stated accuracy of plus or minus two degrees Fahrenheit during continuous immersion. The stainless-steel case and stem resist corrosion, so repeated high-temperature cycles do not degrade the calibration or the easy-to-read pointer.
