Weiss Instruments 45RB-060 Thermometer

The Weiss Instruments 45RB-060 is a heavy-duty remote vapor tension thermometer designed for precise thermal monitoring in high-demand refrigeration and HVAC applications. Built with a 4.5-inch stainless steel case and a front flange for secure panel mounting, this unit excels in environments requiring NSF certified thermometer compliance. It features a dual scale dial covering -40°F to +60°F and Celsius, providing clear visibility for walk-in coolers and industrial freezers. The 48-inch tin-plated capillary and bulb offer significant installation flexibility, allowing for remote sensing while maintaining high accuracy. This analog temperature gauge is fully recalibratable, ensuring long-term field reliability without the need for frequent replacements. For technicians managing commercial food service equipment, the 45RB-060 provides a rugged, non-electric solution that eliminates the risk of sensor failure during power loss.

Key Benefits for Technicians

• Field Calibration: External reset feature allows for immediate adjustment to maintain ±1 division accuracy.
• Corrosion Resistance: Tin-plated brass bulb and capillary withstand moisture and harsh refrigeration chemicals.
• Versatile Mounting: The 45RB series front flange design is ideal for flush-mounting on localized control panels or walk-in exterior walls.
• Vapor-Actuated Precision: Provides rapid response times compared to standard bimetal thermometers, with no mercury risk.
• Code Compliance: NSF/ANSI Standard 2 listed for use in all commercial food zones and cold storage facilities.

Common Questions

Can the capillary be shortened or extended in the field?
No, vapor tension thermometers like the Weiss 45RB-060 are sealed systems. Cutting the capillary will release the pressure charge and render the unit inoperable.

Does this unit require a battery or external power source?
This is a mechanical vapor tension dial thermometer that operates solely on physical pressure changes, making it ideal for systems requiring 24/7 monitoring without electrical dependency.

What is the proper way to mount the sensing bulb?
For the most accurate readings, ensure the tin-plated bulb is in direct contact with the airflow or medium being measured, secured away from heat-generating components like defrost heaters.
