Specifications
This User's Guide supersedes all previously published material. Specifications that are not marked as
guaranteed are published as general information to the user. The instrument should have warmed up
for at least 20 minutes and the environmental conditions must not exceed the specified limits of the
probe. Note that specifications are subject to change without notice.
