Ingress protection Meets IEC-529 IP-54 for dust and water resistant enclosures. Intrinsic safety This product is energy limited for intrinsically safe operation in hydrogen atmospheres per Class I, Division 1, Groups hazardous(classified) locations for UL per UL913 and CSA per C22.2 No. 0- M1982 and No.
BATTERY INSTALLATION AND REPLACEMENT If battery indicator turns on, battery life is approximately 8 to 10 hours. The battery indicator will start blinking with less than 1 hour of life remaining. Selected settings are stored in memory and will remain in memory even after power is turned off, or while batteries are being replaced.

CAUTION: WEAK BATTERIES SHOULD NOT BE LEFT IN THE INSTRUMENT. DEAD BATTERIES CAN LEAK AND CAUSE DAMAGE TO UNIT. DANGER: VOLTAGES PRESENT AT THE THERMOCOUPLE MAY ALSO BE PRESENT AT THE BATTERY TERMINALS. ALWAYS DISCONNECT THERMOCOUPLE WHEN CHANGING BATTERIES. WARNING: TO PREVENT IGNITION OF A HAZARDOUS ATMOSPHERE, BATTERIES MUST...
SELF TEST Press ON/OFF key. thermometer performs a self-test and all display digits and indicators, as shown below, should remain on for approximately one second. CONNECTING A THERMOCOUPLE Use the correct thermocouple type for your instrument. Using an incorrect thermocouple type will result...

Thermocouple wiring polarity must be correct. If readings decrease as the temperature increases, thermocouple wires may be reversed. wire negative thermocouple wires manufactured in North America.
If a thermocouple is not connected or if the thermocouple is defective, the display will indicate OPEn. Thermocouples are sensitive at the tip or measuring junction. When taking measurements, allow time for the reading to stabilize. Multiplying the time constant of the probe by 5 will give you the approximate time required.
HOLD FUNCTON Press the HOLD key to retain the reading on the display. Press the HOLD key again for normal operation. CALIBRATION The thermometer is factory calibrated and does not require calibration before use. The CAL function allows single point calibration of the thermometer, at 0°C (32°F) compensate...
temperature reading is stable, press the CAL key. The CAL indicator will stop blinking and the reading will be set to 0°C (32°F). The CAL indicator will remain turned on, indicating a field calibration is active. If “Err” is displayed, either the displayed reading is outside the above limits or the batteries are weak.
11. FIELD CALIBRATION LOCKOUT AND RE-ENABLE The calibration lockout feature prevents any field calibration changes. The lockout remains in effect until a lockout re-enable has been performed. Use the following procedures to lockout or re-enable the field calibration operation. 12. LOCKOUT PROCEDURE 1.
13. RE-ENABLE PROCEDURE 1. Turn the thermometer off. 2. Simultaneously press and hold the HOLD and the CAL keys down and momentarily press the ON/OFF key. Continue to hold the HOLD and CAL keys until the display blanks. 14. MAINTENANCE Properly used, the thermometer should maintain calibration indefinitely and not require service other than occasional...
15. CLEANING WARNING: PREVENT IGNITION HAZARDOUS ATMOSPHERE ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE,CLEAN WITH DAMP CLOTH. clean with abrasives solvents. Use mild detergents, never immerse nor use excessive fluid. 16. BATTERIES If there is no display when the thermometer turned check condition of the two AA batteries. Also check that the battery terminals are clean batteries...

18. SERVICE WARNING SUBSTITUTION OF COMPONENTS MAY IMPAIR INTRINSIC SAFETY. There are no internal adjustments or user replaceable parts. If “Err” followed by the numbers 1 through 9 is displayed (see example below) return unit for service. Note that “Err” alone may be displayed during improper field calibration.
19. WARRANTY Manufacturer warrants this product to be free from significant deviations from published specifications for a period of three years. repair adjustment necessary within the warranty period, the problem will be corrected at no charge if it is not due to misuse or abuse on your part as determined by the Manufacturer.
