The bimetal thermometers are safe and reliable, eliminating the use of mercury to measure temperature, states the company. The thermometers are available in dial diameters from 2 to 5 inches and in ranges from -80 to 1,000°F (and Celsius equivalents). The instruments are available in standard stem lengths from 2½ through 24 inches and special-order stems up to 60 inches. The Maxivision® thermometers provide a fixed rear or bottom stem while the Everyangle™ design allows the stem angle to be adjusted. Hermetically sealed for easy wash-down or liquid filled to counter high vibration, the stainless steel bimetal thermometers are ideal for virtually every difficult installation, says the manufacturer.
