ASTM S12C Non-Mercury Thermometer, -20 to 120C
ASTM S12C Non-Mercury Thermometer has a total measurement range from -20 to 120C, with graduations of 0.2 degrees. These total immersion thermometers are specified for use in gravity testing, and can be used for other applications within their range. Total length is 16.7in (425mm).
ASTM Non-Mercury Thermometers meet standard test method requirements for use in their referenced applications. The liquid-in-glass thermometers have the same performance characteristics as ASTM Mercury Thermometers, but use safe blue liquid as an alternative to mercury. The proprietary formula is biodegradable, nontoxic, and nonhazardous. Dark blue color is easily read against the white-backed stem.
Features:
- Meets ASTM E1, E77, E2251 requirements
- Non-hazardous, biodegradable indicating fluid
- Dark blue fluid is highly visible against white-backed stem
- Acceptable for use in Saybolt Viscosity Testing
