Temp-Chex®, Red Spirit

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit monitors temperatures between -90 °C and 50 °C and comes calibrated and with a NIST-traceable certificate to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulatory requirements. It is mercury free and enclosed in a plastic case to protect the thermometer and contain the contents if broken, making it environmentally safe. Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is scaled in 0.5° increments (ultra-low thermometer features 1° gradation), allowing you to meet CAP and CLIA standards.

Each thermometer is calibrated and provided with a certificate traceable to NIST to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulatory requirements. The thermometers can be attached to refrigerator, freezer or incubator walls magnetically or adhesively. Temp-Chex thermometers with Red Spirit are available for a range of laboratory applications: refrigerator (-5 °C to 15 °C), freezer (-30 °C to 0 °C), ultra-low freezer (-90 °C to 20 °C) and incubator/room temperature (18 °C to 50 °C).

Temp-Chex®, Red Spirit

Features:

  • Individually serial-numbered and NIST-traceable

  • Yellow background for easier reading

  • Enclosed in a durable plastic case to contain contents in case of breakage

  • Can be mounted magnetically or adhesively

  • Downloadable wall chart for daily temperature monitoring available

Benefits:

  • A wide temperature range allows Temp-Chex thermometers to be used to monitor most laboratory applications

  • Mercury free and non-hazardous for increased laboratory safety

  • Thermometer probe is housed in a vial of propylene glycol, which creates a temperature buffer that prevents fluctuations

Frequently Asked Questions

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is a certified NIST-traceable laboratory thermometer for monitoring refrigerators, ultra-low freezers, incubators and room temperatures from -90 °C to 50 °C. The thermometer comes calibrated with a NIST-traceable certificate to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulatory requirements.

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit monitors temperatures between -90 °C and 50 °C. This extremely wide temperature range allows the thermometer to be used for ultra-low freezers (-80 °C) as well as refrigerators, incubators and ambient temperature monitoring.

Yes, Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is mercury-free and non-hazardous, making it environmentally safe for laboratory use. This eliminates the safety concerns and disposal requirements associated with mercury thermometers while maintaining accurate temperature measurement.

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is enclosed in a durable plastic case to protect the thermometer and contain the contents if broken. This protective case increases laboratory safety and prevents contamination if the thermometer is accidentally damaged.

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is scaled in 0.5° increments for standard models, allowing precise temperature readings. The ultra-low thermometer features 1° gradation. This precision allows laboratories to meet CAP and CLIA temperature monitoring standards.

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit can be mounted magnetically or adhesively. The yellow background makes the thermometer easier to read, even in low-light conditions or through freezer doors.

The Temp-Chex with Red Spirit thermometer probe is housed in a vial of propylene glycol, which creates a temperature buffer that prevents fluctuations during door openings. This ensures that displayed temperatures reflect the actual storage temperature rather than temporary changes.

Yes, Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is individually serial-numbered and comes with a NIST-traceable certificate. This certification ensures accuracy and helps laboratories meet regulatory requirements from CAP, CLIA and other accrediting organizations. A downloadable wall chart for daily temperature monitoring is also available.

Temp-Chex with Red Spirit is ideal for ultra-low freezer monitoring (-90 °C to 50 °C range) and when a simple, non-electronic thermometer is preferred. Temp-Chex Digital II is better suited for applications requiring alarm features, automatic event recording or when monitoring refrigerators and standard freezers (-50 °C to 70 °C range). Both are NIST-traceable and meet regulatory requirements.
