Cole-Parmer Industrial Silicone Filled Bimetal Thermometer, 3” Dial, Adjustable Angle, 6” Stem, 50-550°F (10-290°C)
Manufacturer: Cole-Parmer
Description
Designed for higher-temperature environments, this Cole-Parmer thermometer measures from 50 to 550 degrees Fahrenheit, corresponding to 10 to 290 degrees Celsius. It utilizes a bimetal coil mechanism housed within a 6-inch stem and connected to a 3-inch dial. The adjustable-angle feature of the dial housing provides installation flexibility, as the face can be oriented for clear visibility regardless of the stem's mounting position. A key construction feature is the silicone fluid filling within the case. This fluid acts as a damping agent to absorb energy from mechanical vibration and shock, protecting the sensitive bimetal element and promoting a stable, accurate pointer indication. This makes the device suitable for use in applications involving steam lines, heated process fluids, or industrial ovens where a robust, purely mechanical temperature indicator is preferred.
