Chinese term or phrase: 温度记录玻璃
原文：
”Step A:过滤，将滤液抽入a或b。
Setp B:下一步脱溶。
Step C: 温度记录玻璃与热电偶。"

请问：什么是”温度记录玻璃“？是一种用来记录温度的专用玻璃吗？还是有别的意思？

谢谢！

Explanation:
(Prepare the) glass (and) thermocouple used to measure the temperature.

I have doubts about Billy Chang's answer, because a thermocouple is used to measure or record temperature; one does not measure the temperature of a thermocouple.

Also, 热电偶 should definitely be translated as thermocouple.
My guess is that the thermocouple is enclosed in a glass sheath or is imbedded in glass (??).

I don't know why Chinese is so vague and ambiguous. It seems you need to already know the answer before you can understand what it is they should be explaining. :))

Asker: I did check with the client. Acutally they are the third party instead of the original writer. They don't know either. So I doubted there must be a colon left out (温度记录：玻璃与热电偶“makes more sense, namely, Temperature recording: glasses and thermocouples.
