This Kenya Standard specifies requirements and testing for indicating thermometers using sensing methods of gas expansion (symbol GE), liquid expansion (symbol LE) and bimetallic strip (symbol BM). Nominal sizes are from 40 to 160, and temperature measurement from – 100 ºC to +700 ºC. Thermometers specified have circular scales, and are for industrial use only. Thermometers of square form are also covered by this Kenya Standard except for case and pointer dimensions.This standard does not apply to thermometers for medical use nor to thermometers with electrical limit contact devices.
