Weiss Aluminum Industrial Thermometer | A7VU6/120FC | 6″ Stem | 0-120°F/C
Product Description
The A7VU6/120FC is part of the professional Weiss 7-inch scale series, which utilizes a Die-Cast Aluminum Case for superior impact resistance compared to standard polyester models. The “VU” (Vari-angle) feature allows the thermometer head to be tilted and rotated to any viewing angle, providing perfect visibility for operators in Dubai and Abu Dhabi regardless of complex pipe routing.
This model is scaled for 0-120°F (-17 to 49°C), making it specifically optimized for cooling systems where high-resolution monitoring of chilled water is required. The 6-inch (150 mm) stem provides excellent immersion depth to penetrate thick thermal insulation and reach the center of the fluid flow, ensuring a fast and accurate temperature response.
Key Features
- Die-Cast Aluminum Housing: Finished in a textured grey epoxy, the aluminum case offers maximum protection in high-traffic or harsh industrial environments.
- Fully Adjustable Vari-angle: The head can be maneuvered 360 degrees horizontally and 180 degrees vertically, ensuring the display is always readable.
- Chilled Water Optimized: The 0-120°F range provides clear graduations for precise monitoring of cooling plant supply and return lines.
- Mercury-Free Blue Liquid: Utilizes a high-visibility blue spirit liquid that is non-toxic, environmentally safe, and easy to read against the white scale.
- 6″ Heavy-Duty Stem: Designed for mid-sized pipelines, providing deep immersion to capture the true core temperature of the system fluid.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Q: Why choose the Aluminum case over the Valox (plastic) case?
- A: Aluminum cases are preferred in industrial areas where the instrument might be subject to mechanical impact, extreme vibration, or where fire-safety regulations specify metallic housings.
- Q: Does this include the thermowell?
- A: For pressurized applications, this thermometer must be installed in a 6″ Weiss Thermowell (typically model E6-35BS) to ensure a leak-proof seal and allow for maintenance without system shutdown.
- Q: Is this model dual-scale?
- A: Yes, the scale displays both Fahrenheit (F) and Celsius (C) as indicated by the “FC” suffix in the model number.
