Measuring The Temperature Of A Fluid; Preparing For Pumping In A Specific Mode - Omega Engineering OMEGAFLEX FPU5-MT-110 User Manual

5.6 Measuring the Temperature of a Fluid

The TEMP key displays the temperature of the fluid, as measured via an optional
Type K thermocouple probe. The pump motor is equipped with an SMP Type K
female thermocouple jack, located near the bottom on the back of the pump
motor.

5.7 Preparing for Pumping in a Specific Mode

There are four specific modes in which to pump fluid: RPM, FLOW RATE,
TIME, and TOTAL VOLUME. These modes correspond to the criteria the pump
motor uses to dispense the fluid. These four modes are described on the next
page.

pressed; °C then °F
To measure the temperature of the fluid, plug one end of an optional Type K
thermocouple probe (equipped with an SMP male connector) into the SMP jack
and immerse the other end of the probe in the fluid.
Press the TEMP key. The display shows the fluid's temperature in (°F or °C).
If you are reading the temperature in °F and wish to switch to °C (or if you are
reading the temperature in °C and wish to switch to °F), press the TEMP key
again. The display shows the fluid's temperature in the unit of measure to
which you switched.
If the optional thermocouple probe is not connected to the pump motor, the
reading on the display will be 300°F (149°C).
When you press the START/STOP key and the pump starts running, the
active pumping mode is the last mode displayed before you pressed the
START/STOP key.
Detailed instructions on how to select a pumping mode and adjusting the
settings in that mode appear in Chapter 6.
