Are you still wasting money on test strips? Stop! Save money and increase the accuracy and reliability of your dishwasher compliance monitoring with the first dish-simulating thermometer - DishTemp.
Measures True Plate-surface temperature
Shaped like a plate, DishTemp simlates the actual plate surface temperature as it rides through your dishwasher cycle.
Waterproof to IP66® probe
We built DishTemp with industrial grade materials for waterproof protection that holds up in a commercial dishwasher.
High Accuracy to ±0.9°F
With a digital sensor, DishTemp is more than twice as accurate as temperature strips.
Ranges up to 194°F
DishTemp can even ride along even the hottest of washes, the ones most of your standard strips can’t handle.
Big, Bold Display
Read your max temperature and current temp, no squinting involved.
Designed to ride along with a load of dishes, DishTemp simulates a plate and accurately and irreversibly records the max surface temperature experienced by dishware inside a commercial dishwasher. Engineered with molded-in, water-tight seals, using industrial grade materials, DishTemp carries an IP66 rating and comes with a NIST-Traceable Calibration Certificate so you know its accurate, and a 1-year warranty.
DishTemp eliminates costly and inaccurate thermal labels and stem thermometers that don't stay in place and don't accurately measure temperature at the plate surface. DishTemp complies with the FDA Food Code requirements for high temperature dishwasher testing using irreversible registering temperature indicators.
DishTemp only has one button. The power button resets the irreversible Max Temp reading before each cycle. Simply turn DishTemp on, toss it in with the other wares and view the max surface temperature after the dish cycle ends. Use during audits and daily logs.
Built to survive daily use inside commercial dishwashers, DishTemp outperforms every testing solution. Save time, save money, improve your work. Order now.

Yes, DishTemp fully verifies compliance with FDA Food Code Section 4-703.11(B) for thermal sanitization in high-temperature commercial dishwashers. It provides an irreversible maximum temperature recording with high accuracy (±0.9°F / ±0.5°C) and comes with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate.
DishTemp eliminates recurring single-use temperature strip costs by offering a reusable, durable digital testing solution with long-term NIST-traceable accuracy. Unlike thermal strips that only change color at specific threshold steps, DishTemp records exact, high-precision surface temperatures.
The maximum operating temperature for DishTemp is 194°F (90°C), DishTemp should never be exposed to environments above 200°F (93°C). Exceeding 200°F can damage internal electronic components and the waterproof seal.
To reset the irreversible max temperature reading, simply turn DishTemp off and power it back on using the single front-facing power button. Powering the device on resets the internal memory, making it immediately ready to capture the peak temperature of the next wash cycle.
To toggle the display between °F and °C, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds while turning the unit on from a powered-off state. The screen will switch temperature scales and save your preference for subsequent wash cycles.

Commercial use
"Our Racks have large spaces so it is hard to be able to place it. We needed some sort of a Stainless steel hanger... not available."
Perfect and great support !!

The Plate-Simulating Thermometer Standard
"I have used these plate simulating thermometers for a decade at casinos, convention center and CMS inspected Senior Living Community. After I started using them I have since noticed they are what the city Health Inspectors in our area carry, as well as the CMS inspector. They are simple to use and accurate. They work well on flight, conveyor and single tray dish machines equally well. I do reccomend putting them face down on a flat rack when testing a conveyor or single rack machine. These units are more cost effective than disposable options and last twice as long as other brands' similar products. Replacing the battery is a little bit fiddly, but only a minor inconvenioence for an exceptional product. These units last longer than the competitor. I have had units last three years, which is exceptional compared to other options."
Possibly an unusual use?
"I don't possess a dishwasher. I purchased my water temperature gauge, because it is so neat, to test early morning (6. 30am) swimming water temperature . . . the sea in the summer and indoor public swimming pool in the winter (where temperaturecan fluctate too much . . now I can comment accurately. I saw the same model being used at a hotel, took photos of it and Googled you. I am delighted with mine. I am delighted with mine and can be sure the sea is warm enough to stop my winter pool swimming, which is 2nd best compared to the sea."
Dishwasher temp guage
"Works great"
Does not last
"I have now purchased 3 of these. They work great until they get water damage. The button to turn on and off gives out after usage. This item should have an auto off feature to extend the life of the buttons."
Accurate and reliable.

Dishwasher thermometer
"This is the second time I purchased this product and both times the digital screen has cracked. Unacceptable for when health inspector comes into our establishment"
Use of DishTemps to profile Finnish Sauna.
"I currently have accumulated 11 DishTemps that are mounted on a tree and different sections of the sauna so that I can profile the temperature gradient in my Thermory No. 63 Electric Heated Barrel Sauna. I limit their temperature exposure to less than 110 degrees C and they perform quite well for that application. None of them will ever see a Dishwasher, their designed intent."
