A melting-point apparatus is a scientific instrument used to determine the melting point of a substance. Some types of melting-point apparatuses include the Thiele tube, Fisher-Johns apparatus, Gallenkamp (Electronic) melting-point apparatus and automatic melting-point apparatus.

A thermometer is a tool that measures temperature — how hot or cold something is. Thermometers are used to see if you have a fever or tell you how cold it is outside. Made up of thermo (heat) and meter (measuring device), the meaning of the word thermometer is pretty straightforward.

Thermistors and RTDs are devices used to measure temperature in modern Heating, Ventilating, Air Conditioning and Refrigeration (HVAC/R) systems. The electrical resistance of both devices is determined by their temperature.

Clinical Thermometer is meant for clinical purposes. It is developed for measuring the human body temperature. A laboratory thermometer, which is colloquially known as the lab thermometer, is used for measuring temperatures other than the human body temperature.

A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, a thermometer measures the temperature, and an anemometer measures wind speed and direction. Weather radar detects precipitation in the clouds, and the Doppler radar takes measurements of winds in clouds in order to predict severe storms and tornadoes.

Sunshine is measured using either Campbell-Stokes sunshine recorders or modern sunshine sensors. A pyranometer is used for measuring global radiation.

Adhesive strip thermometers are thin, flexible strips that stick on the outside of the aquarium and give an approximate reading. Accuracy. Many aquarium thermometers list the degree of accuracy with which they record temperatures. A quality aquarium thermometer should be accurate to within +/-2°F.

Temperature Measurement A simple digital thermometer is a combination of a thermocouple, a battery-powered, dual-slope digital voltmeter to measure the thermocouple output, and an electronic display. This provides a low noise, digital output that can resolve temperature differences as small as 0.1°C.

What is a bimetallic stemmed thermometer? It's a thermometer that can check temperatures from 0 degrees Fahrenheit to 220 degrees Fahrenheit. It's useful for checking temperature during the flow of food. It measures temperature through its metal stem.

As nouns the difference between thermometer and temperature is that thermometer is an apparatus used to measure temperature while temperature is (obsolete) the state or condition of being tempered or moderated.

One of the most common devices for measuring temperature is the glass thermometer.

Bimetallic Stemmed Thermometer- is the most common and versatile type of thermometer, measuring temperature through a metal probe with a sensor in the end. Most can measure temperatures from 0 o F to 220 o F and are accurate within +/- 2 o F. They are easily calibrated.

The common instruments of measure are anemometer, wind vane, pressure sensor, thermometer, hygrometer, and rain gauge.

Usually, mercury and petrolate are the most common fluids in this kind of thermometer. Mercury and petrolate usually can measure temperature in a range of −40 to +900°C and −200 to +260°C, respectively [2].

THERE are two ways to measure temperature, Celsius and Fahrenheit. The one officially used and recognised in the UK is Celsius but many other places around the world use the Fahrenheit scale.
