Any shift in temperature readings greater
than twice the tolerance of the instrument
must be investigated and the immediate
replacement of the gauge if it is faulty. How does a bi-metal thermometer work?
The bi-metal thermometer is made up of
two metals moulded together to form a
coil.
Advantages of bi-metallic
thermometers: As the temperature changes, the bi-
metallic coil contracts or expands, causing
the pointer to move up or down the scale.

Standard stainless-steel gauges and
pockets are suitable for air, oil, water and
other non-erosive fluids.
Environmental conditions should be
taken into account when considering
suitable materials for dial case, etc.
The instrument head should be protected
from localised heat or cold sources as this
can lead to indicating errors.
The function of the gauge does not
require any special maintenance
procedures but frequent checks must be
made to ensure that the instrument is still
working correctly and accurately.
