Can this thermometer be calibrated with a wrench?

Yes it can be calibrated with a wrench on the back side of the dial.. Hope that helps you.

I assume there is some measure of calibration at the factory. There is no calibration certificate, nor is there any way to calibrate the unit short of modifying the cable length. It is, however, the most accurate unit I have owned. Unfortunately, that accuracy is only with the original thermocouples - using other type K thermocouples from Amazon and other suppliers results in bizarre readings. It would be very useful to have a calibration function on the unit.

I don't think so. I know you have to calibrate it yourself but it's very easy.

Yes. Calibration is not a big deal. it is a matter of choosing a weight and a distance from the head and applying a simple formula. Simply do a web search for calibrating a torque wrench. There are multiple sites with detailed instructions.

Yes. The wrench is reversible so it will measure the torque for left handed threads.

Hi, there is a hex nut that holds the stem to the dial. I measured it, and it is 11mm. That is an unusual metric size. An adjustable wrench would work perfectly. The nut isn't very tight, so pliers would work OK.You would of course need an accurate thermometer to set it to.Boiling water is OK if you live close to sea level. At 3000 ft altitude, water boils at 206 degrees F.At Denver (mile high), water boils at 202 degrees.My thermometer did not come with a wrench. That would be a good idea.Mine was set close enough for cooking, maybe not for lab work.

It's not a thermometer, it's a HEATER.A thermometer measures temperature, and you can use one of these to adjust the heater to where you want it.

Thermometer is not adjustable, but would be out of calibration as soon as you heated again because of the bi-metal. If you don't want to be adjusting all the time go digital.

I don't think so. I used it on my tires and it worked fine as it should without calibration. My tires are supposed to be 32 psi and that's what I got after putting air into them. I hope this helps!

While, I don't know your brand, the answer will very likely be yes. If you look at the back of the watch, you'll see indents on the side of the "circle." They are usually 120 or 60 degrees apart. You adjust the wrench's three points to grab the indents and you twist. Super easy, you'll laugh afterward.

I have not been able to calibrate the sensors. Just use another thermometer to compare.

I have never tried calibrating it with a thermometer close by but it seems to work well cycling my electric heaters on the ceiling. I have two of them and they they both work fine. Would buy them again.

Yes, but it comes with a hex wrench. You will still need a phillips head screwdriver of your own.

I am sorry but I don't have a way to really test the accuracy, and I don't have anything to even use it in the reverse direction. Also, it would probably cost me more to get it calibrated than I paid for the wrench.

Yes you can. This thermometer is very flexible and doesn't have all of the "preset" settings like so many others. You can program it easily to give you an alert for the desired temperature. Most versatile thermometer I have owned yet.

Haha yup no wrench, just use a thin metal thing off a pocket knife or use a thin flathead screwdriver. Just be careful when applying lots of force if needed.

I don't know that one can based on the instructions. The package does state NSF Certification applies to the instrument only and is "Accurate for Life - Guaranteed". I recommend you contact the manufacturer directly. Cooper-Atkins Corp. www.cooper-atkins.com 860-347-2256 N. Clark may have been referring to the Alarm Set Point, but this is not a re-calibration of the temperature monitoring instrument.
