ASTM S65C Non-Mercury Thermometer, 50 to 80C

ASTM S65C Non-Mercury Thermometer, 50 to 80°C

The ASTM S65C Non-Mercury Thermometer is a reliable, precision instrument designed for applications requiring accurate temperature measurements between 50 to 80°C. With finely graduated 0.1°C divisions, this thermometer ensures precise readings, making it ideal for specialized laboratory work such as Saybolt Viscosity Testing and other ASTM-referenced applications. Its total immersion design further enhances measurement accuracy by allowing the entire thermometer to be immersed in the measured substance.

This thermometer is a safer, environmentally friendly alternative to traditional mercury thermometers. It features a proprietary blue liquid formula that is biodegradable, non-toxic, and non-hazardous. The bright blue liquid is highly visible against the sturdy, white-backed glass stem, making it easy to read even in challenging lighting conditions. With a total length of 15.7 inches (400mm), it’s suitable for use in a variety of laboratory setups.

Key Features:

• Meets ASTM Standards: Complies with ASTM E1, E77, and E2251 requirements, ensuring accuracy and reliability in professional applications.
• Environmentally Safe Fluid: The blue indicating liquid is a biodegradable and non-hazardous alternative to mercury.
• Enhanced Visibility: The dark blue liquid provides excellent contrast against the white-backed stem for easy reading.
• Precision Measurement: Offers accurate readings with 0.1°C graduations, perfect for precision testing.
• Durable Design: Built to withstand laboratory environments while reducing risks associated with mercury spills.
