WARRANTY & SUPPORT
Galileo Thermometer
Based on a discovery by Galileo Galilei (1564-1642)
History
Searching for a way to measure exact temperatures,
Galileo discovered this fascinating method. He placed
several exactly weighted balls in a cylinder filled with
a certain liquid. He found that the balls rose or fell
according to the temperature. By this method, he was
able to determine the current temperature.
Working with German artisans in Wertheim Germany,
La Crosse was the first American company to sell
Galileo Thermometers in the USA.
How it Works
This thermometer works on the principle that the
density of a liquid changes as the temperature varies.
Each of the glass balls is exactly weighted by partially
filling them with liquid. When the temperature rises, the
liquid in the glass cylinder becomes less dense and
the heavier balls sank to the bottom. When viewing, the
lowest floating ball is the current temperature.
