Laboratory Thermometer (Product Code: SCL123/1.10) is a reusable glass alcohol thermometer that reads from -10 to 110°C, covering the temperatures met in most school heating, cooling and mixing experiments. It is listed for chemical laboratory application and is used by students and lab assistants to follow the temperature of water, solutions and mixtures as they are warmed or cooled. As part of chemistry lab equipment in India, it is supplied to schools and colleges by its maker, Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

The range runs from just below the freezing point of water to just above its normal boiling point, so one thermometer can follow a heating curve of water from ice to boiling, track the cooling of a hot liquid for a cooling-curve graph, or monitor a water bath during an enzyme or solubility experiment. Chemistry groups also use it to record temperature change during dissolving and neutralisation reactions, where a rise or fall of a few degrees tells students whether the process is exothermic or endothermic.
Clamp the thermometer so the bulb sits in the liquid without touching the bottom or sides of the beaker, stir gently, and read the column at eye level to avoid parallax error. Never heat the thermometer directly in a flame. Laboratories that order from a chemistry lab instruments supplier usually keep a thermometer clamp or holder on each bench for this reason.
Jain Scientific Equipments Private Limited produces this thermometer under the ScienceLab brand at Ambala in Haryana, India, for educational and general laboratories. Details of our background and product families are on the company profile.

What range does this thermometer read?
From -10 to 110°C, enough for ice-water, room-temperature and boiling-water experiments.
Is it a mercury or an alcohol thermometer?
It is listed as an alcohol thermometer with a glass body.
What are the scale divisions and immersion depth?
These details are not stated in our current product information. Contact us and we will confirm them for the version supplied.
How do I get an accurate reading?
Keep the bulb fully in the liquid, clear of the container walls, stir, wait for the column to stop moving and read at eye level.
What should I do if a thermometer breaks?
Collect the glass with a brush and pan rather than bare hands, wipe up the liquid and dispose of the pieces in a broken-glass bin.
Is a calibration certificate available?
Please raise calibration documentation with our team when you enquire; we will explain what can be offered.
Can you supply thermometers in bulk?
Yes. Send the product code SCL123/1.10, quantity and delivery address; we supply India and international markets.
