Thermometers

Thermometers are devices that measure temperature or a temperature gradient using a variety of different principles. Temperature is simply the numerical measurement of hot and cold—which has great importance in a wide variety of applications. Temperature affects our comfort, cooks our food and is critical to making many products upon which we rely. Given the extreme importance of temperature across so many aspects of modern life, thermometers are a familiar tool to us.

Temperature is the most commonly measured parameter in commercial and industrial settings. Industries as diverse as food processing, pharmaceuticals, cold storage, paper manufacturing, and others absolutely rely on process temperatures being within a certain range. Though there are many temperature sensing options, thermometers provide an inexpensive, versatile and reliable choice.

Things to consider when selecting a thermometer:

• What level accuracy is needed? Over what temperature range?
• Which scale is preferred?
• Will it measure at the spot or remotely?
• In what type of environment will the thermometer operate?
• Are multiple channels needed?
• Will the thermometer be used for food service? Will it require hygienic approvals?
