KM340 DIGITAL THERMOMETER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
It is recommended that you read the safety and operation instructions before using this instrument.

WARNING
TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT ALLOW ANY PROBE OR SENSOR TO COME INTO CONTACT WITH LIVE ELECTRICAL POWER CONDUCTORS WITH VOLTAGES IN EXCESS OF 30V AC RMS OR 60V DC.
TO AVOID DAMAGE OR BURNS, DO NOT MAKE TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS IN MICROWAVE OVENS.
THE ⚠ SYMBOL ON THE INSTRUMENT INDICATES THAT THE OPERATOR MUST REFER TO THE WARNINGS GIVEN HERE.
CAUTION
Temperature Measurement Probes
This precision instrument has been designed for use with the extensive range of Comark temperature probes. The use of other probes may impair the performance and accuracy of the instrument. Full details of Comark probes and sensors can be obtained from Comark Customer Support department or your local distributor.
Repeated sharp flexing can break thermocouple probe leads. To prolong lead life, avoid sharp bends or kinks in the leads, especially near the connector.
CE
This instrument complies with the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive EN61326-1.
Declarations of Conformity available. Contact Comark Customer Support or your local Distributor.
In line with its policy of continuous development, Comark Instruments reserves the right to alter the instrument specification without prior notice. Further information is available from Comark Instruments or your distributor.
2. CALIBRATION, CERTIFICATION AND SERVICE

0451
Certification
Comark can provide certificates of calibration for its whole product range, to suit ISO 9000 and other quality assurance procedures, food hygiene regulations, HACCPs and environmental regulations. Comark certificates are produced by independent quality controlled processes which compare product performance against agreed National Standards. For peace of mind and best practice Comark recommend annual certification/recalibration.
Two levels of certification are available for infra-red temperature and non temperature instruments, excluding humidity:- UKAS certificates via an external accredited laboratory and NPL traceable certificates from the Comark calibration laboratory.
Three levels of certification are available for contact temperature products and these are detailed here:
a) UKAS Temperature Certification
The Comark UKAS (United Kingdom Accreditation Service) accredited temperature calibration laboratory is one of the finest in the UK. Comark UKAS certificates can offer the lowest uncertainty of 0.01°C and provide independent proof of correct calibration using equipment and procedures audited by UKAS inspectors. The equipment used is fully traceable to the National Physical Laboratory.
b) UKAS Humidity Certification
In addition to the Comark temperature laboratory, the humidity laboratory continues the tradition of
high accuracy certification and a wide range (25% to 90%RH) with uncertainties of 2.8% of reading. This range also includes Dew point measurements.
c) NPL Traceable Certification
Comark NPL certificates are traceable to the National Physical Laboratory and can offer uncertainty as low as 0.3° C.
Conformance
Certificates of conformance can be supplied for new, serviced and recalibrated instruments. These confirm that instruments are within their original manufactured specification.
Service/Repairs
Regular servicing and any required repairs, under warranty or after, are available from the Comark Service Department.
For more information on all Comark certification, calibration and service facilities please call Comark Customer Support or contact your local distributor.
3. INTRODUCTION
This instrument is a portable 31/2 digit, compact-sized digital thermometer designed to use external type-K thermocouples as temperature sensors. It is compatible with the full range of Comark type-K thermocouple probes.
4. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
4.1 Selecting the Temperature Scale
Readings are displayed in either degrees Celsius (°C) or degrees Fahrenheit (°F). When the thermometer is turned on, it is set to the temperature scale that was in use when the thermometer was last turned off. To change the temperature scale, press the °C or °F key.
4.2 Single-Thermocouple Temperature Measurement
The thermometer displays the temperature of the thermocouple that is connected to the selected input. Press the T2 key to display the temperature of the thermocouple connected to the T2 input. Press the T1 key to display the temperature of the thermocouple connected to the T1 input. The selection cursor indicates which input is selected.
4.3 Differential Temperature Measurement
Differential temperature measurement is selected by pressing the T1-T2 key. This causes the thermometer to display the temperature difference between the two thermocouples (the temperature of thermocouple T1 minus the temperature of thermocouple T2). The selection is indicated by the input selection cursor.
4.4 HOLD Mode
Pressing the HOLD key to enter the Data Hold mode, the "D-H" annunciator is displayed. When HOLD mode is selected, the thermometer holds the present reading and stops all further measurements.
Pressing the HOLD key again cancels HOLD mode, causing the thermometer to resume taking measurements.
4.5 MAX Mode
Press the MAX key to enter the MAX mode. The thermometer then records and updates the maximum value for that input. The MAX annunciator appears on the display. Press the MAX key again to exit the MAX recording mode.
In the MAX mode, press HOLD key to stop the recording, press HOLD again to resume recording.
The maximum function is limited to use on a single temperature scale at a time and for readings which do not make a transition through zero.
5.1 Battery Replacement
Power is supplied by a 9 volt, PP3 battery. The battery sign appears on the LCD display when a replacement is needed. To replace the battery, remove the three screws from the back of the instrument and lift off the front case. Exchange the battery in the protection tube located at the top of the rear cover. Replace the instrument front squarely with the rear cover and secure with the three screws.
