About This Product
Sealing the scale inside the sleeve keeps markings from fading when the thermometer is used in corrosive vapours such as fuming nitric acid or ammonium hydroxide. University chemistry and pharmaceutical labs use it to take the temperature of volatile or corrosive liquids, including during distillation, reflux and boiling point elevation work. Enquiries from Seychelles, Guinea-Bissau, Papua New Guinea, Honduras and Laos for the Inclusion Thermometer receive an export quotation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the scale sealed inside the Inclusion Thermometer?
The outer glass sleeve protects the graduations from corrosive vapours, so the scale does not fade with use.
