ASTM S65F Non-Mercury Thermometer, 122 to 176F, NIST

ASTM S65F Non-Mercury Thermometer: Precision Measurement with Enhanced Safety (122 to 176°F, NIST Calibrated)

Experience superior temperature measurement with the ASTM S65F Non-Mercury Thermometer, designed for applications demanding high accuracy and safety. This total immersion thermometer boasts a precise measurement range of 122 to 176°F (50 to 80°C) with fine 0.2°F (0.1°C) graduations, making it ideal for critical laboratory and industrial processes where exact readings are paramount. Its overall length of 15.7 inches (400mm) ensures versatility for various setups.

Developed as a safe and environmentally responsible alternative to traditional mercury thermometers, the ASTM S65F utilizes a proprietary, non-hazardous liquid fill. This advanced blue liquid is not only biodegradable and non-toxic but also provides exceptional visibility against the thermometer's white-backed stem, minimizing reading errors. It delivers the same high-performance characteristics as ASTM Mercury Thermometers, meeting strict standard test method requirements for its referenced applications, including crucial Saybolt Viscosity Testing.

Key Features & Benefits:

• ASTM Compliance: Fully meets ASTM E1, E77, and E2251 requirements, ensuring reliability and conformity to industry standards.
• Safety First: Features a non-hazardous, biodegradable, and non-toxic blue indicating fluid, offering a safer alternative to mercury without compromising accuracy.
• Optimal Readability: The dark blue fluid provides excellent contrast against the white-backed stem, facilitating quick and accurate temperature readings.
• Precision Application: Specifically designed for precision testing and suitable for a wide array of applications within its specified temperature range.
• Versatile Immersion: Total immersion design ensures the entire liquid column is exposed to the temperature being measured for maximum accuracy.
• NIST Traceable Calibration: Each thermometer comes with a five-point calibration certificate from an ISO/IEC 17025 accredited laboratory. This rigorous calibration process uses direct comparison in a high-stability liquid bath with Precision Reference Thermometers (PRTs) and Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometers (SPRTs), guaranteeing the highest level of accuracy and traceability to national standards. The thermometer undergoes thorough inspection for cracks and liquid-column separations before calibration, ensuring product integrity.
