The digital thermometer is used to measure temperature and temperature differences with the aid of ex- changeable type K thermcouples/sensors. The digital thermometer is predominantly used for temperature measurement in laboratories and in industrial applications. With the aid of the MAX function it is possible to determine limit temperature infringements in extended series of measurements. The 1/4“ tripod con- nection provides a fl exible locking facility for stationary setups. Function/Application – Only hold the test prods by the handles. Do not touch the test prods, they can become very hot during the measuring procedure. – Wherever possible the test prods should not be operated with an external voltage supply; if this is unavoidable pay particular attention to the maximum voltage with respect to earth potential and the maximum voltage between the two inputs T1 and T2. To avoid damaging the device, the external vol- tage supply must not be higher than 24 V AC or 60 V DC. Please note that the test prods are electrically conductive and may irreparably damage the test piece when measuring in connection with an external voltage supply. – Use under high voltages or under high electromagnetic alternating fi elds can have an infl uence on the measuring accuracy. Safety information Protection class II: The test device has reinforced or double insulation. Earth potential Important notes. Must be observed. Symbols Warning about hazardous electrical voltage: Unprotected live components inside the device housing are capable of posing a risk of electric shock. Danger area warning

– The device must only be used in accordance with its intended purpose and within the scope of the specifi cations. – If you are working with voltages higher than 24 V AC/60 V DC, exercise extreme caution. Touching the electrical conductors at such voltages poses a risk of life-threatening electric shocks. – If the device comes into contact with moisture or other conductive residue, work must not be carried out under voltage. When using the device outdoors, make sure that the weather conditions are appro- priate and/or that suitable protection measures are taken. – The measuring tools and accessories are not toys. Keep out of reach of children.

– If the thermometer is subject to large fl uctuations in the ambient temperature, after the temperature has stabilised, wait 20 minutes before performing a measurement. – Always ensure adequate thermal coupling at the measuring point in order to avoid measuring errors caused by temperature loss. – Please note that all thermometers with a contact sensor infl uence the measurement and their thermal capacity can reduce the actual temperature. More thermal energy should therefore be applied to the thermocouple than it can dissipate. – OL is shown in the display when no measuring sensor is connected. – The thermometer shows OL when the measured temperature is outside the measuring range. – Only use the correct types of thermocouple plugged in at the K-type connection; the wrong type of thermocouple can cause considerable measuring errors. – In addition to being subject to ageing, a thermocouple is also greatly depending on the operating condi- tions and should therefore be checked regularly. – High pressure or mechanical deformation can change the grid structure and therefore have an infl uence on the thermoelectric voltage output.

ON/OFF This display appears when no corresponding thermocouple is connected or the measuring range has been exceeded.

Temperature measurement (T1, T2, T1-T2) The temperature T1 or T2 is measured and displayed by pressing button „T1“ or „T2“. A thermocouple (type K) must be plugged in at connection T1 or T2. The differential temperature can be determined by pressing button „T1-T2“ when thermocouples are plugged in at both connections.

• The device should be checked regularly to ensure it is functioning correctly. Calibration intervals of 1 year are recommended.

Measured value resolution (0.1 °C/1.0 °C) This function changes the measurement resolution is changed between 0.1 °C and 1.0 °C. The resolution of 0.1 °C is particularly useful for measurements ≤100 °C where it is necessary to determine the tempera- ture exactly. A resolution of 1.0 °C is recommended for measuring higher temperatures. Manual_ThermoMaster_GB_Rev0311.indd 09Manual_ThermoMaster_GB_Rev0311.indd 09 29.03.11 15:3629.03.11 15:3610
