Standard specification for ASTM thermometers
Specifications are given for both solid-stem thermometers and enclosed scale thermometers. For the solid-stem thermometers, the specification covers liquid-in-glass thermometers graduated in Celsius (centigrade) or Fahrenheit degrees which are frequently specified in methods of the American Society for Testing and Materials. The various thermometers covered are listed. For enclosed-scale thermometers, the specification covers adjustable-range enclosed-scale thermometers, graduated in Celsius (centigrade) degrees, which are specified in methods of the American Society for Testing and Materials. These thermometers are commonly called Beckmann thermometers, and are suitable for measuring small temperature differences not exceeding 6/sup 0/C within a larger range of temperature. The thermometers, however, are unsuitable for measuring Celsius- or kelvin-scale temperatures unless they have been compared with standard instruments immediately before use.
