A thermometer is a device that measures temperature or a temperature gradient. A thermometer has two important elements: 1. a temperature sensor (e.g. the bulb of a mercury-in-glass thermometer or the digital sensor in an infrared thermometer). In which some change occurs with a change in temperature; and 2. Some means of converting this change into a numerical value e.g. the visible scale that is marked on a mercury-in-glass thermometer or the digital readout on an infrared model. Thermometers are widely used in technology and industry to monitor processes, in meteorology, in medicine, and in scientific research.

There are many different types of thermometer available in today’s market. Before you make your purchase, it is vital that you are made aware of the range of products available to you. You should also understand and consider each type of thermometers suitability for various different uses.
