Frequently asked questions
Does this thermometer require any batteries to function?
No, this thermometer is completely passive. It operates without any batteries or electrical power, ensuring you don’t have to worry about electronic failures or power outages interrupting your incubator monitoring.
How precise is the temperature measurement?
The thermometer is engineered for high accuracy in clinical and laboratory settings, featuring 0.5°C graduations. This allows for precise monitoring of your incubator’s internal environment within the 18°C to 50°C range.
Is the glass safe for lab use?
Yes, the thermometer features a Teflon-coated glass design. This specialized coating increases the durability of the unit, helping it withstand the typical stresses and demands of a professional laboratory environment.
Can I mount this inside my incubator?
Yes, the unit is designed to be wall-mountable. It includes a protective housing vessel that allows for stable positioning inside the incubator chamber, ensuring consistent monitoring of the temperature.
Does this cover the typical incubation temperature range?
Yes, the thermometer is calibrated for a range of 18°C to 50°C. This range is specifically selected to cover the standard temperature requirements for most laboratory and clinical incubator applications.
Why choose this over a digital thermometer?
The main advantage is passive reliability. Because it requires no power or electronics, it eliminates the risk of digital sensor drift, battery failure, or electrical malfunctions, providing a simple and dependable way to verify your incubator’s performance.
What is the thermometer filled with?
It is filled with red mineral spirit alcohol. This choice of fluid provides a high-contrast column that ensures clear, reliable, and easy-to-read measurements at a glance.
Is this a liquid-in-glass thermometer?
Yes, this is a liquid-in-glass thermometer that utilizes a total immersion design for high-accuracy readings in controlled thermal environments.
Is the unit resistant to breakage?
While it is made of glass, the thermometer is built with a Teflon-coated housing for improved durability against laboratory stresses. It is designed to be a robust tool for consistent, professional use.
What is included in the package?
Your order includes the incubator thermometer unit as well as the protective housing vessel used for mounting and stability.
