Advantages of mercury thermometer comparison between electronic thermometer and mercury thermometer

1. Accurate reading: Mercury thermometer has high measurement accuracy, which can reach 0.65438 0℃, especially in high temperature environment.

2. Solid quality: Because mercury thermometer has no wearing parts such as LCD screen, it is easy to use, not easy to be damaged and has a relatively long service life.

3.

Limit: Mercury thermometer uses mercury as temperature measuring liquid, but mercury is a harmful substance, which is potentially dangerous to the environment and human health. Therefore, mercury thermometers are gradually eliminated, and the number of mercury thermometers on the market is very small.

Comparison between electronic thermometer and mercury thermometer;

1. Use in different ways: the mercury thermometer needs to be placed in the measuring position, and it can only be read after waiting for a few minutes; Electronic thermometers usually only need to be placed in the measuring position for a few seconds to get readings.

2. Different conveniences: the electronic thermometer is small and light, and easy to carry and use; On the other hand, mercury thermometers are bulky and difficult to carry.

3.

Different precision: more advanced and high-end electronic thermometers, such as infrared thermometers, can achieve high-precision, non-contact and real-time measurement, and can also avoid cross-infection; However, the accuracy of general electronic thermometers is slightly worse than that of mercury thermometers.

4.

Different safety: there are certain safety hazards when using mercury thermometers. If the thermometer is not used and stored properly, mercury may leak, which is harmful to health and environment. Electronic thermometers do not have this problem.

To sum up, electronic thermometers and mercury thermometers have their own advantages and disadvantages, and they need to be selected according to actual needs and use environment.
