Battery Information
Go Direct Wide-Range Temperature contains a small lithium-ion battery in the
handle. The system is designed to consume very little power and not put heavy
demands on the battery. Although the battery is warranted for one year, the
expected battery life should be several years. Replacement batteries are available
from Vernier (order code: GDX-BAT-300).
Storage and Maintenance
To store Go Direct Wide-Range Temperature for extended periods of time, put
the device in sleep mode by holding the button down for at least three seconds.
The red LED will stop flashing to show that the unit is in sleep mode. Over
several months, the battery will discharge but will not be damaged. After such
storage, charge the device for a few hours, and the unit will be ready to go.
Exposing the battery to temperatures over 35°C (95°F) will reduce its lifespan. If
possible, store the device in an area that is not exposed to temperature extremes.
Water Resistance
The body of the Go Direct Wide-Range Temperature Probe is not water resistant
and should never be immersed in water.
If water gets into the device, immediately power the unit down (press and hold
the power button for more than three seconds). Disconnect the sensor and
charging cable, and remove the battery. Allow the device to dry thoroughly
before attempting to use the device again. Do not attempt to dry using an
external heat source.
How the Sensor Works
The detector is a platinum RTD (Resistance Temperature Detector) sensor with
an output that increases nonlinearly with increasing temperature.
