Palmer Wahl is known for its wide variety of temperature technologies available under one roof. “Temperature is one of the most important measurements in every industrial process. It can make the difference between a safe product and a potentially dangerous one. Palmer Wahl has been on the forefront of temperature product development, and our high quality instruments have kept us in business for 180 years” said company President, Stephen J. Santangelo.
From its roots in mercury-in- glass and mechanical temperature measurement, Palmer Wahl has expanded its offerings to include Thermocouple & RTD Sensor Assemblies, Temp-Plate temperature sensitive labels, Heat Spy Thermal Imaging cameras, Fixed Infrared and more.
