Digital Pocket Thermometer (Product Code: SLE/ME/36) is a battery-powered probe thermometer used to take quick temperature readings of liquids and samples in school, college and research laboratories. It reads -50 to 200 °C (-58 to 392 °F) with 0.1° resolution between -19.9 and 199.9°, is accurate to ±1 °C/±2 °F over the full range, and has a 4-1/4 in probe light enough to use in beakers and tubes without tipping them. It is supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala, a laboratory instruments supplier in India.

A pocket probe thermometer is the quick way to check a water bath, a reaction mixture, a freezing mixture or a hot oil bath without waiting for a glass thermometer to settle. The min/max function records the extremes reached during a cooling curve or an overnight run, and the digital display removes the parallax errors students often make when reading a liquid column.
Dip only the probe into the sample, let the reading steady, and wipe the probe between samples to avoid carry-over. The case is not described as waterproof, so keep the body dry. Switch off after use; the auto shutoff also helps save the battery if the thermometer is left on.
ScienceLab, the trading name of Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited in Ambala, Haryana, supplies this pocket thermometer for laboratories that want a fast digital reading alongside, or instead of, liquid-in-glass thermometers. It is available to schools, colleges, research labs and dealers in India and international markets, and can be ordered with beakers, stands and other measuring items. See the company profile.

What temperature range does the Digital Pocket Thermometer cover?
The Digital Pocket Thermometer (SLE/ME/36) measures from -50 to 200 °C, or -58 to 392 °F. Readings switch between Celsius and Fahrenheit with the °C/°F button, so one instrument suits classes working in either unit.
How accurate is the Digital Pocket Thermometer?
The Digital Pocket Thermometer is accurate to ±1 °C or ±2 °F over its full range. It displays 0.1° resolution between -19.9 and 199.9°, and 1° resolution outside that band, which suits most teaching and routine laboratory measurements.
Does the Digital Pocket Thermometer come with a battery?
Yes, the Digital Pocket Thermometer comes with a 1.5 V battery. The auto shutoff function turns the unit off when it is left on, helping the battery last, and the on/off switch lets users turn it off after each reading.
What does the min/max function on the Digital Pocket Thermometer do?
The min/max function on the Digital Pocket Thermometer keeps the lowest and highest temperatures reached while it is on, which is useful for tracking a cooling curve, checking a water bath or confirming that a sample stayed within range.
Can the Digital Pocket Thermometer be used in test tubes and flasks?
Yes. The Digital Pocket Thermometer's 4-1/4 in probe and lightweight build let it be used in beakers, cylinders, flasks and tubes without tipping them over. Only the probe should be immersed; keep the case dry.
