ASTM Equivalent S20C Non-Mercury Thermometer, 57 to 65C

ASTM Equivalent S20C Non-Mercury Thermometer (57 to 65°C)

This liquid-in-glass thermometer is designed to meet the strict performance standards of ASTM applications, offering reliable and accurate readings within a temperature range of 57 to 65°C. While its performance and physical features align with ASTM thermometers, the S20C model has not yet been reviewed or accepted by ASTM for official use.

Key Features:

• Safe & Eco-Friendly Liquid: The thermometer uses a dark blue biodegradable, nontoxic, and nonhazardous liquid for indication, providing a safe alternative to traditional mercury thermometers. The vivid blue color is easy to read against the white-backed stem for quick and accurate temperature monitoring.
• Total Immersion Design: Specifically designed for total immersion applications, ensuring precise measurements when the thermometer is fully immersed to the designated depth.
• Durable Construction: The thermometer measures 11 inches (280 mm) in length, making it compatible with various laboratory setups.

Applications:

• Designed for Saybolt Viscosity testing, a critical process in measuring the flow characteristics of petroleum products, oils, and other fluids.
• Ideal for laboratory environments requiring reliable, non-mercury thermometers for temperature-sensitive testing.

Specifications:

• ASTM Number: S20C
• Temperature Range: 57 to 65°C
• Division: 0.1°C (provides precise incremental readings)
• Immersion Type: Total immersion
• Length: 11 in (280 mm)
• Type: Non-Mercury

Compliance with Test Standards:

This thermometer meets the following ASTM test methods, ensuring compatibility with common lab procedures:

• ASTM E2251
• ASTM E77
• ASTM E1

Storage Recommendations:

To prevent fluid column separation, always store non-mercury thermometers vertically using an appropriate storage rack. Proper storage extends the life of the thermometer and maintains its reading accuracy.

Optional Accessory – Thermometer Well:

Enhance the durability and performance of your thermometer with a thermometer well. This accessory offers added protection and thermal stabilization, especially for use in ovens or exposed environments where precise temperature control is critical.

Whether you’re conducting viscosity tests or other lab analyses, the S20C Non-Mercury Thermometer offers safety, accuracy, and reliability for modern laboratory needs.
