ASTM S117C Thermometer 23.9 to 30.1C, NIST Calibration

Precision and Safety: ASTM S117C Non-Mercury Thermometer with NIST Calibration

Discover superior accuracy and environmental responsibility with the ASTM S117C Non-Mercury Thermometer, meticulously calibrated for precise measurements within the 23.9°C to 30.1°C range. Engineered to meet the rigorous physical and performance specifications of ASTM standards for its intended applications, this thermometer offers a reliable and safer alternative to traditional mercury-filled instruments.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Environmentally Conscious Design: Utilizing a safe, biodegradable, nontoxic, and nonhazardous blue indicating liquid, this thermometer eliminates the risks associated with mercury exposure, making it ideal for laboratories and industries prioritizing safety and sustainability. The vivid dark blue fluid stands out sharply against the white-backed stem, ensuring effortless readability even in challenging conditions.
• ASTM Standard Adherence: While this specific thermometer has not yet undergone formal ASTM review and acceptance for all referenced applications, it is manufactured with physical and performance characteristics identical to the ASTM S117C standard, guaranteeing consistent quality and reliable results.
• NIST Traceable Calibration for Uncompromised Accuracy: Each thermometer is supplied with a comprehensive NIST Traceable Certificate of Calibration. This five-point calibration is performed by an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory, providing robust assurance that the calibration process meets the highest international standards for competence, impartiality, and consistent operation. The calibration ensures measurement integrity and compliance with quality systems requiring traceability to national standards.
• Rigorous Calibration Process: Calibration is executed through direct comparison in a high-stability liquid bath, utilizing highly precise reference instruments such as a Precision Reference Thermometer (PRT) and a Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometer (SPRT) with their corresponding displays. Before any testing, each thermometer undergoes a thorough inspection for potential defects like cracks or liquid-column separations, ensuring foundational integrity. Measurements are meticulously recorded at five distinct temperature points across its specified range to guarantee accuracy throughout.

Detailed Specifications:

• ASTM Designation: S117C Type (conforms to S117C specifications)
• Temperature Range: 23.9°— 30.1°C
• Immersion: Total (designed to be fully immersed for accurate readings)
• Application: Ideal for "Tag Closed Low" applications, ensuring precise temperature monitoring in relevant testing environments.
• Division: 0.01°C (providing fine-grained measurement resolution)
• Type: Non-Mercury
• Length: 24 inches (614mm)

Optimal Storage and Protection:

• Vertical Storage is Crucial: To maintain the integrity of the liquid column and prevent separation, always store non-mercury thermometers vertically. Utilizing a dedicated thermometer storage rack is highly recommended to protect the instrument and ensure its long-term accuracy.
• Enhanced Protection with a Thermometer Well: For applications in ovens or other environments where glass thermometers might be exposed to physical stress or rapid temperature fluctuations, a Thermometer Well is recommended. This accessory provides vital physical protection and helps to thermally stabilize the thermometer, ensuring more consistent and accurate readings in demanding conditions.
