LF Analogue Thermometer 25 mm for Catering Use

An analogue thermometer provides instant, mechanical temperature readings without power or batteries, using a coiled metal strip that expands and contracts with heat. This movement turns the needle on the dial, giving a direct visual reading of the temperature in the surrounding medium—whether in oil, water, or air within a professional kitchen. The method is simple, reliable, and requires no calibration or maintenance beyond keeping the dial clean and unobstructed.

To use the thermometer, the operator inserts the stem into the substance or space being measured. The needle moves to the corresponding temperature on the scale, allowing quick checks during cooking, proofing, or holding. Once the reading is taken, the thermometer is removed and wiped clean if necessary.

The unit is constructed with a 25 mm diameter dial, making it compact enough to fit into tight spaces on worktops, hobs, or inside equipment panels. The temperature scale ranges from 0 to 100 °C, covering the critical range for most catering processes, from chilling to boiling. The small size and clear dial ensure it can be read at a glance, even in fast-paced kitchen environments.

Cleaning is straightforward: wipe the dial and stem with a damp cloth to remove grease or residue. Avoid immersing the thermometer in water or exposing it to extreme temperatures beyond its scale, as this may affect accuracy over time.
