ASTM #5C Cloud & Pour Thermometer, -38 to 50C, NIST Calibration
The ASTM #5C Cloud & Pour Thermometer, -38 to 50C has a strict manufacturing tolerance. Accuracy is assured by inspection and testing of samples from each production run. The thermometer is supplied with a statement of compliance to E 1 and E 77 requirements. The ASTM Thermometer is yellow-backed glass with permanent graduations, mercury-filled and individually packed in a cardboard tube.
Comes with a NIST Traceable Certificate of Calibration. The NIST Traceable Certificate of Calibration is a five-point calibration certificate from an ISO/IEC accredited laboratory. This accreditation is your assurance that the calibration is performed in a qualified, controlled lab. The calibration on the glass thermometer is performed using direct comparison in a high-stability liquid bath with a Precision Reference Thermometer (PRT) and Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometer (SPRT) and displays. The thermometer is also inspected for cracks and liquid-column separations before testing. Measurements are performed at 5 temperature points.

The ASTM #5C Cloud & Pour Thermometer, -38 to 50C with NIST Calibration is a high-quality thermometer designed to provide accurate temperature readings in various applications. Manufactured with strict tolerances, this thermometer undergoes thorough inspection and testing during each production run to ensure its accuracy.
This thermometer is made with yellow-backed glass, which features permanent graduations for easy reading. Filled with mercury, it is individually packed in a cardboard tube to protect it during transport and storage. The thermometer measures temperatures ranging from -38 to 50C with a division of 1.0C.
What sets this thermometer apart is its NIST Traceable Certificate of Calibration. This certificate guarantees that the calibration has been performed in an accredited laboratory, ensuring its reliability. The calibration process involves comparing the thermometer's readings with a Precision Reference Thermometer (PRT) and Standard Platinum Resistance Thermometer (SPRT) in a high-stability liquid bath. Before testing, the thermometer is thoroughly inspected for any cracks or liquid-column separations.
For added convenience, the ASTM #5C Cloud & Pour Thermometer is supplied with a statement of compliance to E 1 and E 77 requirements. This statement confirms that it meets the necessary standards set by these organizations.
To ensure the longevity of this thermometer and prevent fluid column separation, it is recommended to store it vertically using a storage rack. Additionally, for applications where the thermometer is exposed to higher temperatures, a Thermometer Well is available to provide both protection and thermal stabilization.
