Temperature Ranges
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE METER, STRICTLY OBSERVE THE AMPLIFIER’S AND DETECTOR’S MAXIMUM
TEMPERATURE RANGES.
ATTENTION
AFIN D'ÉVITER TOUT DOMMAGE AU COMPTEUR, RESPECTEZ RIGOUREUSEMENT LES PLAGES DE TEMPÉRATURES
MAXIMALES DE L'AMPLIFICATEUR ET DU DÉTECTEUR.
• In regions with extremely high ambient temperatures, protect the detector .
• In cases where fluid temperature exceeds 212° F (100° C), use the remote version .

Remote Amplifier Outdoor Location
The amplifier can be installed and operated outdoors . However, it must be protected from the elements, as follows:
• The ambient environment/temperature rating for the unit is – 4…140° F (–20…60° C) .
• If an indoor location is within 150 feet (50 meters) of the detector, consider increasing the cable length and mounting the
amplifier indoors .
• At minimum, fabricate a roof or shield over and/or around the amplifier to protect the LCD display screen from direct
sunlight .
