Operating Instructions:
This unique, handy little gage is great for use in sensing the
temperature of almost any surface. The bimetal sensing element is exposed
to allow quick accurate response to surface temperature, but adequately
shielded from damage by a protective cover and heat
collector. For the most accurate reading this surface
thermometer should be used in still air. Place the gage
on the surface where you wish to know the temperature
– dial face up with bimetal sensing element against the
surface. The magnets will allow placement in any
position on a ferrous surface. It can also be used on any
other material with a horizontal surface. Allow about a
minute for the sensing element to stabilize and then
read the temperature. Higher or lower air temperatures
surrounding the thermometer or a draft over the surface
may slightly affect the temperature indicated.
Some Typical Applications:
Air ducts, boilers, cabinets, drums, engines, enclosures,
fire boxes, manifolds, platens, plumbing, piping,
refrigerators and many others.
