Removing the battery from the instrument switches it off after a few seconds: at this point do not
move the sensor to avoid losing the correct displayed value. As soon as the battery is fitted, the
instrument switches on with the same value on the display which was present at the moment when
it was switched off. If the sensor has not be moved, the displayed value will be correct. In case the
sensor moved when the instrument was off, to re-establish the correct measure it is necessary to
repeat the adjustment process.

Magnetic strip mounting
The magnetic strip P50 consists of a magnetized plastic ferrite strip with alternate magnetic poles
of 5 mm pitch, carried by a ferromagnetic steel strip. Mechanical protection of the plastic ferrite
strip is supplied by a non magnetic steel strip with thickness 0,2mm.
The magnetic strip is assembled by sticking it with a bi-adhesive tape. The surface has to be
smooth, clean and dry: is advisable to clean it with a degreasing product (isopropyl alcohol, ethyl
alcohol, solvents, etc). The magnetic strip has to be stuck holding the plastic ferrite side in the
direction of the sensor, which means the steel side leaned on the stand surface. Fixed the
magnetic strip, to keep off damages due to abrasions or grazes of the plastic ferrite strip, is
advisable the appliance (always bi-adhesive) of the non magnetic protection strip. The optimal
ambient temperature for stick the bi-adhesive tape is over 10°C. The maximum adherence of the
tape works out after 48 hours (about) of the application and is kept between –10 and 80°C.
