Product Notes
Getting Started
The HiTemp150-TSK consists of a HiTemp150 data logger in a thermal enclosure and the
HiTemp150-PT-TSK consists of a HiTemp150-PT data logger in a thermal enclosure. They
can be used in both wet and dry applications up to 150 °C indefinitely. When used with the
thermal enclosure the devices can withstand higher temperatures for certain durations of
time. The chart located on the back page, outlines the time versus temperature durations.
- To start the logger, unscrew the thermal enclosure and separate the thermal enclosure
lid, from the body of the data logger. Unscrew the knurled nut to access the communication
port. Screw the knurled nut back on to ensure a waterproof fit.
- The logger should be removed from the barrier immediately after removal from the heat
environment. Be extremely careful, the logger may be very hot.
Submergibility
The HiTemp150 and the HiTemp150-PT are fully submergible and are rated IP68. They can
be placed in environments with up to 345 feet (105 m) of water.
O-Rings
The o-rings ensure a tight seal and prevent liquid from entering the inside of the device.
Please refer to the application note “O-Rings 101: Protecting Your Data”, found on the
MadgeTech website, for information on how to prevent O-ring failure.
