Making a Measurement
•
Turn the thermometer on with the ON/OFF button.
•
Bring the surface or material to be measured into contact with the
temperature sensor.
•
Wait until a steady value is displayed. The time required to obtain an
accurate measurement depends on the application and may take up to 30
seconds.
•
You can press the HOLD button to store the measurement value. H
appears in the display when the thermometer is in Hold mode.
•
Before making a measurement, turn the HOLD function OFF.
•
Overload or underload conditions appear as OL or -OL on the
thermometer display.
For the most accurate measurement results, follow the guidelines below:
•
When measuring liquid, paste, or solid material, the insertion depth of the
sensor should be approximately 30 mm (1.18 in).
•
For surface temperature measurement, there must be reasonable heat
contact between the sensor and the surface to be measured. The surface
and the sensor should be clean and the sensor must be place vertically
on the surface. The use of a thermal conductivity paste is suggested.
Cleaning
•
Turn the thermometer OFF prior to cleaning.
•
Clean the thermometer using a damp cloth and household detergent.
•
Never use acid detergents or solvents for cleaning.
•
Do not use the thermometer until it is completely dry.
