Perpendicular-legged Mercury Thermometer

What is a mercury thermometer?

A mercury thermometer is a form of temperature gauge that works on the principle of mercury expansion when there is a change in temperature.

A thermometer is simply a device used to measure temperature and temperature gradient. Thermometers are derived from two fragments of the Greek word “thermo” meaning “temperature” and “meter” meaning “measurement”.

Advantages

• Mercury thermometer is a type of temperature meter that is considered to be highly accurate and has a very small error, only +-1%
• Easy to install and dismantle, easy to repair.
• The material of the thermometer is suitable for any working system from simple to complex.
• It is a meter with many different measurement scales, which will make it easy for consumers to choose without restrictions on measurement limits.

Application of mercury thermometers

Mercury thermometers are industrial thermometers used for industries such as:

• Chemical
• Oil refining
• HVAC
• Hydraulic …. with solid glass capillary tubes. The temperature dividers are clearly visible on the body of the shell, making it easy for the observer to read.
