This paper presents a review of solutions for studying the physical and mechanical properties of materials by instrumental indentation method in a temperature region from -60 to +450 °C using "NanoScan-4D" series of hardness meters. Scientific timeliness is beyond dispute because the majority of professionals in materials science are trying to solve the problem of behavior of the materials in expanded conditions of operation. Reviewed are the peculiarities of additional modules used for measuring hardness at alternating temperature conditions and indicated the advantages and limits of the considered configurations. A special effort is made to comparison of measurement systems where uniform temperature is maintained both in a sample and instrument with the devices where a sample is heated only. Introduced are the examples of a wide range of materials studied in various temperature ranges. Besides, the temperature dependence of aluminium matrix composite materials hardness in the range from 20 to 350°С has been presented.
