Traceable Kangaroo Thermometer, 7.5 Probe Length, -58 to 572°F, -50 to 300°C

The Thomas Traceable Kangaroo thermometer is a dual-range digital thermometer used for measuring temperature in test-tubes, beakers, and other laboratory equipment. This thermometer measures temperature from -50 to 300 degrees Celsius (-58 to 572 degrees Fahrenheit), with an accuracy of plus or minus 1 degree Celsius between -30 and 250 degrees Celsius. The 7.5-inch stainless-steel probe has a diameter of 0.125 inches and is resistant to most chemicals. It is attached to the base by a 42-inch cable, and the unit has a built-in compartment to hold the cable when not in use.

The LCD display features 0.75-inch-high digits for increased visibility, and a built-in stand is included for hands-free viewing. The Thomas Traceable Kangaroo thermometer is traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology standards, indicating that it is calibrated to International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 17025 levels, ensuring the reliability of measurements.

Digital thermometers are instruments used to measure the temperature of air, liquids, or surfaces electronically. They may measure temperature in Celsius, Fahrenheit, or both. Most digital thermometers use thermistors, which are small electronic resistors made out of metals that conduct electricity within a certain range and become more conductive as they get warmer. A microcontroller inside the thermometer measures this electrical conductivity and converts it to a temperature, which is then displayed on an LCD.

Digital thermometers are widely used in a variety of applications, including scientific research in laboratories, food service and storage, and in doctors' offices and hospitals. Thomas Scientific, the manufacturer of the Thomas Traceable Kangaroo thermometer, is a company that has been providing lab supplies, equipment, chemicals, and instruments for scientific research since 1899. The company is headquartered in Philadelphia, PA, and is a registered contractor for the United States Federal Government.

In summary, the key features of the Thomas Traceable Kangaroo thermometer include its dual-range temperature measurement capabilities, the durable stainless-steel probe, the large and easy-to-read LCD display, the built-in stand for hands-free viewing, and the traceability to ISO 17025 standards, ensuring the reliability of its measurements. This thermometer is designed for use in scientific laboratories and other settings where precise temperature monitoring is required.
