Power Connection

Connect the unit to a stable, earth grounded AC 

mains supply of the correct voltage for the model 

calibrator you have. Use the power cord provided.
Calibrator power requirements:

• 3.15 amps @ 115 VAC~ (±10%) 50/60 Hz, 275W

•   1.6 amps @ 230 VAC~ (±10%) 50/60 Hz, 275W 
If you have a “~230VAC” model you must first 

connect the international style power cord to the 

proper connector used in your country or local area 

(connector not provided).

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Certification CE (CL1000 ~230 VAC)

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Ambient Temperature Effects

When operating the unit at an ambient temperature 

greater than 24°C, do not exceed the “Maximum 

Allowable Probe Well Temperature” shown below. 

Failure to adhere to these guidelines may cause a 

safety switch inside the unit to open the heater circuit. 

If this occurs refer to the section titled 

Overheat Reset 

Switch

 or section 3.2.6 in the User’s Guide.

Using This Quick Start Manual

Use this Quick Start Manual with your CL1000 

series Mini hot point® Dry Block Probe Calibrator 

for easy installation and basic operation. For 

detailed information, refer to the User’s Guide 

(Manual Number M3529).

Precautions:

•  Follow all safety precautions and operating 

instructions outlined in this manual.

•  Never leave your calibrator unattended when in 

use.

• Keep out of reach of all children.

•  Never touch the probe well or probes when hot 

without proper protection.

•  Never place any objects other than temperature 

probes in the well.

• Do not operate in flammable or explosive envi-

ronments.

•  Never operate with a power cord other than the 

one provided with your unit.

•  Turn unit off and disconnect main power cord 

before attempting any maintenance or fuse 

replacement.

•  Never disconnect main power cord or main power 

source when unit is still hot.

•  Do not connect and or operate this unit to a non-

grounded, non-polarized outlet or power source.

•  This unit is intended for indoor use only. Avoid 

exposure to moisture or high humidity.

• Never operate the unit outside.

•  Do not return your unit to storage when hot, allow 

unit to cool down to ambient temperature.

General Description

The CL1000 is a portable, rugged, benchtop, dry 

block calibration source with a built-in precision 

PID digital controller. The calibrator is used to test 

and calibrate temperature probes. The probe well 

can be set to any temperature b11 to 260°C 

(+20 to 500°F) when being operated in ambient tem-

peratures up to 24°C (75°F).

Mounting

Mount the unit in an ambient environment 

between the specified 32 to 122°F (0 to 50°C) on 

a bench, table top or shelf in a horizontal posi-

tion and operate at least ten inches from any air 

obstructions to the fan, front panel or rear panel. 

Do not block the bottom or top vented covers of the 

unit.

Maximum Setpoint Temperature Vs. Ambient Temp.

An increase of ambient temperature of +0.6°C (+1°F) 

above 24°C (75°F) reduces maximum setpoint by 

4°C (7°F).

NOTE:

NOTE:

• Hole in center of probe well is a vent hole, not 

   a probe hole. 

• To ensure the highest degree of accuracy 

   possible, when placing probes into the well, 

   make sure the probe tip goes all the way down 

   to the bottom of the probe well (the full 4.5").  

• After inserting or removing probes into the 

   probe well allow the calibrator time to stabilize 

   before making your measurement. Adding or 

   removing probes changes the total mass of the 

   probe well, the controller will require time to 

   adjust for this change and stabilize back to the 

   temperature you have set.

Changing the Controller Parameters 

In the default mode the digital display indicates the 

probe well temperature known as (PV) Process 

Variable. Holding down the modify button causes 

the display to show the programmed setpoint known 

as (SV) Setpoint Variable. Making changes to the 

setpoint or units of measurement settings are made 
by pressing the 

(Modify) button in conjunction
