Sharply defined melting points of a purified organic chemical provide unique, high precision temperature sensitive phase change indicators with color change effects. Each temperature element uses a different chemical compound and is made separately by applying a coating containing the chemical to a special absorptive paper substrate (usually black). When the rated temperature is exceeded, the chemical melts and is absorbed by the substrate, causing a permanent color change to black
A series of temperature test labels that will permanently record the highest temperature reached by the label.

- Oil, Water, and Steam Resistant
- Inexpensive and Easy to Use
- Product Line Temperature Range
- 84 to 554°F / 29 to 290°C
- Accuracy
- Less than 100°C is +/- 1°C
- 100°C to 154°C is +/- 1.5°C
- Greater than 154°C is +/- 4°C
These self-adhesive labels consist of a series of temperature-sensitive elements sealed between heat-resistant substrates with transparent windows. Each element changes color distinctly as its rated temperature is exceeded. The changes are irreversible, providing a temperature history of the surface being monitored. The labels will not de-laminate when removed for reference and can be attached to an inspection report to serve as a permanent record.
How the Temperature labels work
The temperature-sensitive elements are phase-change indicators which use the sharply defined melting points of a series of specially purified organic chemicals to give the unique, high precision, color change effects. Each temperature element uses a different chemical compound and is made separately by applying a coating containing the chemical to a special absorptive paper substrate. When the rated temperature is exceeded, the chemical melts and is absorbed by the substrate, causing a permanent color change. Up to ten elements can be combined together
on a single label.
Instructions for Use
- Peel indicator from release paper
- Apply to any clean, grease free surface ensuring that the indicator has adhered to the surface
- A color change from silver white/orange to black indicates that the temperature has been reached

Application Data:
Peel temperature-indicating label from backing paper. Apply to dust & grease-free surface. Indicators change from white/grey to black when the temperature rating has been achieved. Note that labels with a polyimide film will appear orange to start. These products are made to the highest standards however they are not suitable for all applications. Please discuss any specific needs with our team.
