₦30,000.00

A mercury clinical thermometer, a traditional device for measuring human body temperature, uses the expansion and contraction of mercury to indicate temperature, and it’s characterized by a narrow glass tube with a bulb containing mercury and a calibrated scale.

Features:

Construction:
Bulb: A glass bulb at one end contains mercury.

Capillary Tube: A narrow, calibrated glass tube attached to the bulb, where the mercury expands and contracts.

Scale: A temperature scale, typically in Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F), marked on the glass tube to indicate temperature readings.

Constriction: A narrow constriction in the capillary tube, just above the bulb, prevents the mercury from falling back to the bulb after the temperature reading, making it easier to read.
