Immersion Thermometer (Product Code: SLE/ME/35) is a red-alcohol-filled, dual-scale thermometer used to measure the temperature of liquids, water baths and air in school and college laboratories. It reads -10 to 110 °C in 1° steps and 0 to 230 °F in 2° steps, and its tube sits in a recessed groove on a metal V-shaped backing for protection. It is made by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), an OEM manufacturer, at its own factory in Ambala, India.

This is everyday thermometry apparatus for the school lab. Students use it to plot heating and cooling curves of water, follow melting ice, keep a water bath at the right temperature for enzyme experiments, record temperature changes in calorimetry and dissolving experiments, and log room or outdoor air temperature. The dual scale lets classes compare Celsius and Fahrenheit readings directly.
Immerse the bulb in the liquid, keep it clear of the bottom of a heated vessel, stir gently and wait until the red column stops moving before reading at eye level. Do not use it beyond the top of its scale. The metal backing and recessed groove protect the tube from knocks, but it should still be laid down carefully rather than dropped into a drawer.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited, known by its trade name ScienceLab, is the OEM of this immersion thermometer and makes it at its own licensed factory at Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India. Laboratories, schools, dealers and importers get quotations straight from the maker, and replacement thermometers for breakages during the school year can be requested from the same source, so just ask us. The company profile has more background.

What is the range of the Immersion Thermometer?
The Immersion Thermometer (SLE/ME/35) reads -10 to 110 °C in 1° increments and 0 to 230 °F in 2° increments. That covers ice-water mixtures, room-temperature work and heating water to boiling in typical school experiments.
What liquid is in the Immersion Thermometer?
The Immersion Thermometer is filled with red alcohol rather than mercury. The red column is easy for students to see against the scale, and an alcohol fill avoids the handling concerns that come with a broken mercury thermometer.
How is the Immersion Thermometer protected from breakage?
The tube of the Immersion Thermometer sits in a recessed groove attached to a metal V-shaped backing. The groove shields the glass from knocks on the bench, while the backing keeps the scale rigid and comfortable to hold.
How do you get an accurate reading from the Immersion Thermometer?
For accurate readings with the Immersion Thermometer, immerse the bulb, keep it off the bottom of a heated vessel, wait until the red column stops moving and read at eye level. Gently stirring the liquid helps the reading settle.
Who manufactures the Immersion Thermometer?
The Immersion Thermometer is manufactured by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), the OEM, at its own factory in Saha, Ambala, Haryana, India, and is supplied factory-direct to schools, colleges, laboratories, dealers and importers in India and international markets.
Is a calibration certificate available for the Immersion Thermometer?
A calibration certificate is not listed with the Immersion Thermometer. If your laboratory needs calibration records, discuss the requirement through the contact page before ordering, so the manufacturer can tell you what can be provided.
Immersion Thermometer quotations come direct from the manufacturer. Send your quantity via the contact page or add the thermometer to the enquiry cart with clamps, beakers and other apparatus.
