ASTM Equivalent S20C Non-Mercury Thermometer, 57 to 65C
These liquid-in-glass thermometers have physical and performance characteristics identical to ASTM thermometers for their referenced applications, but have not yet been reviewed and accepted by ASTM for these purposes. They use a safe blue indicating liquid that is biodegradable, nontoxic, and nonhazardous. Dark blue color is easily read against the white-backed stem.

The ASTM Equivalent S20C Non-Mercury Thermometer is a high-quality liquid-in-glass thermometer that meets the physical and performance characteristics of ASTM thermometers. While it has not yet been officially reviewed and accepted by ASTM, it is designed to be used for the same applications as its ASTM counterparts.
This thermometer features a safe blue indicating liquid that is biodegradable, nontoxic, and nonhazardous, ensuring the safety of both the environment and the user. The dark blue color of the liquid makes it easy to read against the white-backed stem, providing accurate temperature measurements.
With an ASTM number of S20C, this thermometer has a temperature range of 57 to 65 degrees Celsius. It is designed for total immersion and is specifically suited for measuring Saybolt Viscosity. The thermometer has a division of 0.1 degrees, ensuring precise temperature readings.
Measuring at a length of 11 inches (280mm), this non-mercury thermometer is suitable for various laboratory applications. It complies with the following ASTM test methods: ASTM E2251, ASTM E77, and ASTM E1.
To ensure the longevity of the Non-Mercury Thermometer, it should be stored vertically using a storage rack. This prevents fluid column separation and maintains the accuracy of temperature readings.
For additional protection and thermal stabilization in ovens or other exposed environments, the Thermometer Well is recommended. This well provides a shield and stabilization for glass laboratory thermometers.
