We have a comprehensive selection of models is available with a mixture of features and functions. Our analogue and probe categories offer a low cost solution to temperature measurement. This allows you to spend on the features you need and save on those you don't. Our indoor outdoor/dual sensor memory selection also offers fantastic durability for the price. More specialised measurement is attainable using our more expansive range of equipment. Infrared instrumentation is available for non-contact applications. Temperature data loggers record temperature change over prolonged periods displaying the data via graphs. Sticky temperature labels offer easy reporting and traceability. Finally, our K-type range offers a wide selection of interchangeable temperature probes. These cover a vast range of specialised applications. Browse our categories above or find out more about the different types of thermometer and their uses.

Picking your Thermometer - A Pictogram Guide

We try to make selecting your thermometer as easy as possible. To do this we have assigned a selection of pictograms to each and every model that can be used a quick reference guide to show the features, functions and temperature measurement units that each thermometer has. Each product category will contain filterable options on the left hand side that you can use to find the most suitable instrument for your application. Below is a guide to what each pictogram represents.

We endeavour to keep this list of pictograms up to date and relevant as new features and functions are released. If you find a pictogram we have missed out, please feel free to get in touch and let us know!

Digital Thermometer Accuracy Guaranteed with Calibration

A common concern expressed by customers is the accuracy and reliability of temperature readings. It is often believed that digital thermometers are not as accurate as the more traditional analogue style. Ironically, when purchasing through a specialist such as ATP, this could not be further from the truth. A guaranteed accuracy of ±0.5°C – ±1°C is common on most of our range. Additionally, we quality assure every product that passes through our labs. This ensures that even our low cost thermometers provide a high standard of reading.

What to go a step further? All our digital thermometers are available with a full calibration certificate as part of our Instrument Calibration Services. This guarantees high-accuracy and reliable readings. What’s more, the majority of our range comes supplied with batteries. Many models also utilise a display containing a low battery indicator. This directly addresses the typical areas of uncertainty eliminating all accuracy concerns. This guarantees your instruments perform to the high level you expect.
