Air Thermometer
Product Code : SCL-BLE-11652
Air Thermometer (SKU SCL-BLE-11652) is a white plastic thermometer filled with non-toxic spirit, reading air temperatures from -30 °C to +50 °C on scales in both °C and °F. It records room, greenhouse and outdoor temperatures for biology, ecology and weather lessons. Science Lab Supplies provides it from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, tender contractors and science distributors equipping fieldwork and classroom benches.
Specifications
This thermometer’s specification fits in a short table. In short, a non-toxic spirit column in a white plastic body reads from -30 °C to +50 °C, with both Celsius and Fahrenheit scales, giving a spirit-filled way to log air temperature in the laboratory, classroom or school garden.

Applications and Experiments for the Air Thermometer
The thermometer measures the temperature of the surrounding air, so students can compare conditions between sites, track daily changes and relate temperature to plant growth, transpiration or animal activity. Its non-toxic spirit filling suits school use, and the -30 to +50 °C range covers indoor and most outdoor conditions.
- Class 6–8 science and geography: recording air temperature at fixed times to build a weather chart.
- Class 9–12 ecology: comparing air temperature in sun and shade, or along a transect set out with the Tape Measure.
- Plant physiology: logging room temperature during transpiration and seed germination experiments.
- Keeping small animals: monitoring the air temperature around the Containers for Aquariums and Incubators.
Read the scale at eye level, keep the thermometer out of direct sunlight for shade readings, and give the column a few minutes to settle.
Standard Scope of Supply
One spirit-filled plastic thermometer reading -30 to +50 °C, with °C and °F scales, is supplied per unit. Stands, shelters and recording sheets are not included; other thermometers or a psychrometer for humidity can be added to the same quotation when a weather or ecology kit is being assembled.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Price requests can be for a single thermometer or for one per group across a class. Science Lab Supplies quotes the packing, delivery time and price for exactly that quantity, and related instruments such as a psychrometer or laboratory thermometers can be listed on the same quotation as well.
Supported by an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Malaysia and Peru. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). Submit your thermometer quantity via the contact page, bundle it with other items in the enquiry cart, or follow the lab tender page for tendered orders.
Frequently Asked Questions
What range does the Air Thermometer cover?
It reads from -30 °C to +50 °C, with a Fahrenheit scale alongside the Celsius one, which covers classroom, laboratory and most outdoor air temperatures met during school fieldwork.
Does it contain mercury?
No. It is a spirit-filled thermometer with a non-toxic filling, held in a white plastic body, which suits younger students and outdoor lessons where a mercury thermometer is not wanted.
Is it the air thermometer used in gas-law physics?
No. In physics, an air thermometer can mean a gas thermometer based on the expansion of air. This product is a spirit-filled thermometer that measures the temperature of the surrounding air.
Who supplies the Air Thermometer?
This air thermometer is dispatched by Science Lab Supplies from Ambala, India. Schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors can order it on its own or with other thermometers and fieldwork items, all priced on one quotation.
