Thermometers to meet every challenge
There is surely is not a more important measurement parameter than temperature. We are confronted with it on a daily basis and most people have individual preferences as to what exactly the right temperature is in specific situations. And this is where the greatest problem actually lies: people only feel temperature.
However, temperature measuring instruments have to be used for objective and comparable results. Depending on the specific application, you will find different thermometers, temperature meters or digital thermometers for that purpose at Testo.
A Testo temperature meter offers you the following:
Robust construction, even for tough use
High-precision sensor technology for reliable and accurate measurement results
Comprehensive selection of probes for your temperature meter - customized products too
Calibration and servicing from one provider

Temperature measuring instruments in use
The fields of application for temperature meters, digital thermometers and temperature measuring instruments are very varied. Here are just the most important ones:
Spot checking of food
Temperature monitoring of food transportation
Measuring the temperature in the center of flue gas flow in chimneys/flue gas ducts
Measurement of differential air temperatures
Surface measurement for checking the pre-heating temperature when welding
Immersion measurement in chemical solutions for maintaining temperatures during etching processes
Surface temperature measurement on bearings and gear mechanisms in mechanical engineering

Tips and tricks for
temperature measurement and monitoring
A temperature meter means you have already taken the first step. However, you need to bear a few things in mind for really efficient and precise temperature measurement.
With your temperature measuring instrument, choose a probe immersion depth of 10 to 15 times the probe diameter. This reduces measurement errors. In addition, it helps the accuracy of the measurement result if you keep the liquid moving during the measurement.
In this case, the probe head is placed vertically onto the surface. Here it is important to ensure that neither the contact surface of the probe head nor the measurement object are uneven, as this can falsify the measurement.
When measuring moving air with a temperature meter, the measurement probe is simply introduced into the environment being measured. Due to its special design, the air probe has a very short response time. The measurement result can be improved by moving the probe through the air at 2 – 3 m/s during the measurement.

There are applications where a temperature meter is not enough. For instance, when it is a case of monitoring temperatures over a long term, and reliably recording the results. This is where temperature data loggers are used. The small aids are ideally suited for temperature monitoring, making work easier every day for quality managers and facility managers all over the world.
When you need to integrate temperature readings seamlessly into automated building services, then it is temperature transmitters that are required. First, they measure the temperature, just like a temperature meter – however, they then convert the measuring values into a standardized electrical signal which can be further processed to control specific procedures.
In the broad spectrum of temperature measurement, particularly high importance is attached to surface temperature measurement. Because it is not just in industry, trade, or facility management that a surface temperature measuring instrument is used. The food industry is also – and above all – the sector where this measurement method is one of the most common. In the end, spot checks on the quality of food can be carried out quickly and reliably using surface temperature measurement. And precise measurement of the surface temperature often makes laborious measurement of the core temperature superfluous.
