This International Standard specifies requirements for two series of inexpensive “commercial quality?? liquid-in-glass thermometers of the solid-stem type suitable for general purpose use in industry, schools and laboratories when great accuracy of measurement is not required:

  1. a series designated A to H, in which nominal ranges and maximum overall lengths are specified but which may not be acceptable for testing by a national verification laboratory;
  2. a series designated J to W of greater accuracy than in a) and with specified ranges and a tolerance on overall length, which may be acceptable for testing by a national verification laboratory.

The temperature range covered by each series is from − 100 °C to + 500 °C.
