General Information; Unpacking And Inspection - Omega Engineering 873C Operator's Manual

GENERAL INFORMATION
The OI^EGA® IVIodels 873C and 873F are Hand Held Digital Thermo-
meters. Both instruments have large easy to read liquid crystal displays
(LCD). The input connection consists of a subminiature, type K thermo-
couple, female connector (SMP-K-F). This input accommodates any
OMEGA type K thermocouple probe fitted with an SMP-K-M connec-
tor. Cold junction electronic circuitry in the 873F/873C automatically
compensates for ambient temperature changes. These instruments
also provide piece-wise linearization conformity for thermocouple non-
linearity. The instruments are powered by a 9V battery. Continuous
operation of 350 hours is typical with an alkaline battery or 200 hours
typical with a carbon-zinc battery.
The Model 873C measures temperature from - 55°C to 1000°C on
two ranges. The 200°C range measures temperature from -55.0°C to
199.9°C with a resolution of 0.1°C. The 1000°C range measures
temperature from -55°C to 1000°C with a resolution of 1°C. The ac-
curacy is ± (0.25% rdg -i- 1.0°C) from -40°C to 1000°C and ± (0.25%
of rdg -l-2°C) for -40°C to -55°C.
The Model 873F measures temperature from - 60°F to 200°F on two
ranges. The 200°F range measures temperature from -60.0°F to
199.9°F with a resolution of 0.1°F. The 2000°F range measures
temperature from -60°F to 1999°F with a resolution of 1°F. The ac-
curacy of the Model 873°F is ±(0.25% of rdg -i-2.0°F).
UNPACKING A N D INSPECTION
Remove the Packing List and verify that all equipment has been
received. If there are any questions about the shipment, please call
OMEGA Customer Service Department at (203) 359-1660.
Upon receipt of shipment, inspect the container and equipment for
any signs of damage. Take particular note of any evidence of rough
handling in transit. Immediately report any damage to the shipping
agent.
NOTE
The carrier will not honor any claims unless all shipping
material is saved for their examination. After examining and
removing contents, save packing material and carton in the
event reshipment is necessary.
