2.2. Ensure safety

Only operate the product properly, for its intended purpose and within the parameters specified in the technical data. Do not use any force.
Never use the instrument to measure on or near live parts.
Before each measurement check that the connections are correctly closed with blanking plugs or that appropriate sensors have been correctly plugged in. The protection class in the technical data specified for the corresponding instrument may otherwise not be reached.
testo 176 T3 testo 176 T4: The maximum permissible difference in potential between the sensor inputs is 50 V. Take this into account when using surface sensors with non-isolated thermocouple.
After the final measurement, allow probes and probe shafts to cool down sufficiently in order to avoid burns from the hot sensor tip or the probe shaft.
Temperatures given on probes/sensors relate only to the measuring range of the sensors. Do not expose handles and feed lines to any temperatures in excess of 70 °C unless they are expressly permitted for higher temperatures.
Carry out only the maintenance and repair work on this instrument that is described in the documentation. Follow the prescribed steps exactly. Use only original spare parts from Testo.

2.3. Protecting the environment

Dispose of faulty rechargeable batteries/spent batteries in accordance with the valid legal specifications.
At the end of its useful life, send the product to the separate collection for electric and electronic devices (observe local regulations) or return the product to Testo for disposal.

3 Specifications

3.1. Use

The data loggers testo 176 serves the purpose of saving and reading out individual readings and measurement series.

Readings are measured and saved with testo 176 and transferred to the PC via USB-cable or SD-card, where they can be read out and evaluated with the help of the testo Comfort Software. With the software the data loggers can also be individually programmed.

Typical applications

testo 176 T1 is optimally suitable for temperature measurements under extreme conditions, like e.g. on ships or in power plants, because its metal housing provides excellent protection against mechanical influences.

Due to the possibility of connecting external, high-precision Pt100 sensors the testo 176 T2 is optimally suitable for temperature measurements, e.g. in food applications or in the laboratory.

With its external sensor connections (thermocouples type T, type K and type J) and its robust metal housing the testo 176 T3 is able to perform parallel temperature measurements on up to four measuring locations under extreme conditions.

The external sensor connections (thermocouples type T, type K and type J) make the testo 176 T4 and excellent choice for different applications, such as e.g. simultaneous feed and return temperature measurement in underfloor heating at up to four measuring locations.

The testo 176 H1 is optimally suitable for parallel temperature and humidity monitoring, e.g. in warehouses.

With its external sensor connections and its robust metal housing the testo 176 H2 is able to execute temperature and humidity measurements in parallel mode under extreme conditions.

The testo 176 P1 is able to measure pressure, temperature and humidity at the same time and is thus optimally suitable for the documentation of ambient conditions, e.g. in laboratories.

Battery life

The programming windows of the software provide you with typical guide values for the expected lifetime of the battery. This lifetime is calculated on the basis of the following factors:

  • Measuring cycle
    • Number of connected sensors
    Since the battery life depends on quite a few other factors, the calculated data can only serve as guide values.

The following factors have a negative effect on the battery life:

  • longer flashing of the LEDs
  • frequent reading out (several times per day) via the SD-card
    • extreme fluctuations in operating temperature

The following factors have a positive effect on the battery life:

- display switched off

The battery capacity reading in the display of the data logger is based on the calculated values. However, the data logger is switched off when a critical voltage level has been reached. It may therefore happen that:

  • readings are still recorded, even though the battery capacity reading says "empty".
  • the measurement program is stopped, even though the battery capacity reading just before indicated a still remaining battery capacity.

In case of an empty battery or a battery change saved readings will not be lost.

4 First steps

4.1. Unlock the data logger

Testo 176 H1 - Unlock the data logger - 1

5 Display and control elements

5.1. Display

The data loggers testo 176 T1, testo 176 T3, testo 176 H2 have no display.
The display function can be switched on/off via the testo Comfort Software.
Depending on the operating status, various information may be shown in the display. A detailed representation of the information that can be called up can be found under Menu overview, page 50.
For technical reasons the display speed of liquid crystal displays becomes slower at temperatures below 0 °C (approx. 2 seconds at -10 °C , approx. 6 seconds at -20 °C ). This has no influence on the measuring accuracy.
