ZORO SELECT Bimetal Thermometer

This ZORO SELECT bimetal thermometer measures temperature from 50 to 550 degrees Fahrenheit or 10 to 290 degrees Celsius. It features a 3 inch dial diameter and a 12 inch stem length for insertion into process media. The housing is constructed from stainless steel with a glass lens for durability.

Suited for industrial process monitoring

Operators needing a direct-reading instrument for high-temperature liquids or gases up to 550 degrees Fahrenheit will find this suitable. The 1/2 inch NPT back connection allows installation in standard pipe fittings. Users requiring a NIST-traceable calibration certificate included in the box should select a different model.

12 inch stem length determines reach

The 12 inch stem dictates how deep the sensing element sits inside a vessel or pipe. If the process connection point is further from the target measurement zone, this stem will not reach. Verify the required insertion depth against this fixed 12 inch dimension before purchasing.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 1/2 in NPT back connection on the 3 in dial thermometer?

Thread the 12 in stem into a 1/2 in NPT fitting with the dial facing back, using thread sealant on the tapered threads and tightening only on the hex wrench flats to avoid cracking the glass lens.

What maintenance will the stainless steel housing and glass lens need over time?

Wipe the glass lens and stainless steel housing with a soft cloth and mild detergent; avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the lens or damage the dial markings.

At what temperature does the 50 to 550 F range reach its limit during sustained use?

The upper limit is 550 F (290 C); prolonged exposure at or near this temperature can accelerate bimetal coil fatigue and reduce accuracy.
