WIKA chemical bimetal thermometers, horizontal
Horizontal bimetal thermometers in the chemical industry design cover display ranges from -50 to +50 °C up to 0 to +600 °C. Case diameters are 63 or 100 mm, stem lengths measure 63, 100, 160 or 200 mm.
Scale division is 1, 2, 5 or 10 K depending on the span, accuracy corresponds to class 1. The range covers 110 versions supplied without a thermowell, so that span, stem length and case size can be matched to the measuring point.

How to choose WIKA chemical bimetal thermometers, horizontal
What matters when choosing: properties, comparison and typical applications.
Technical data
Applications
The horizontal design suits pipework and vessels in chemical process plants, electroplating lines, pickling baths and water treatment, where the dial has to face away from the pipe axis. Without a thermowell the stem sits directly in the medium, which shortens response time but restricts use to unpressurised or lightly loaded measuring points. Spans up to 0 to +600 °C cover drying, hardening and furnace processes, while ranges starting at -50 °C track brines, refrigerant carriers and air conditioning circuits. On narrow spans such as 0 to +60 °C the 1 K graduation allows fine reading on heat exchangers and flow lines.
