Overview
Not a digital or probe unit, this is a large mechanical dial thermometer that shows the air temperature inside an appliance. It is made of stainless steel with a lens that will not shatter, and it either hangs or stands.
A large dial, dual scales and an NSF approval are the reasons to buy, in a compact stainless body. The limit is range and data: freezer coverage depends on a lower limit that is not low, and the response time and resolution rows are placeholders.
Who it's for
Restaurants, caterers and home cooks who monitor refrigerator temperature with a large dial suit it. Anyone monitoring a deep freezer should check the lower limit first.
Pros and cons
- Large easy-to-read dial
- Fahrenheit and Celsius scales
- Hangs or stands
- No power needed
- Lower limit may miss deep freezers
- Response time row is a placeholder
- Resolution row is a placeholder
Performance notes
A mechanical sensor moves the dial pointer as air temperature changes, so no battery is needed. The large dial and marked scales make a quick read at a glance, and the shatter-proof lens resists drops. It reads the air around the unit, not the food, so placement in the middle of a shelf gives a fair reading.
