Bimetal thermometer for HVAC and process checks

The Value Brand dial thermometer reads from -20 to 120 degrees Fahrenheit and -30 to 50 degrees Celsius. A 3 inch dial and 6 inch stem suit HVAC, refrigeration and general process monitoring. Stainless steel housing and a glass lens resist corrosion in damp environments. No NIST-traceable certificate is included.

Steady response in continuous service

The bimetal coil reacts to temperature changes without electronics or batteries. Readings stabilise as the stem reaches thermal equilibrium with the medium. Stainless steel construction withstands prolonged exposure to moisture and mild chemicals. The fixed 1/2 inch NPT back connection keeps the instrument secure during extended runs.

Limits of the dial interface

The 3 inch dial displays the full -20 to 120 degree Fahrenheit span in a single sweep. Resolution is constrained by the printed scale and pointer width. The 6 inch stem must be immersed sufficiently to sense the true medium temperature. No electrical output or data logging capability is provided.

Questions about this item

Does the 3 in dial bimetal thermometer produce any noise or heat during continuous use?

No, the bimetal thermometer operates mechanically without any power source, so it generates no noise or heat while running all day.

What mounting fitting must I already have to install the 1/2 in NPT back connection?

You need a 1/2 in NPT threaded port or fitting on your equipment to accept the thermometer's back connection.

Will the stainless steel housing and glass lens withstand the same conditions as older brass thermometers?

The stainless steel housing and glass lens resist corrosion and vibration at least as well as traditional brass models across the -20 to 120 F range.
