Cautions about using the Sensors Cautions about using the temperature-humidity sensor TR-3100 The sensor can measure temperature within the range of 0 to 50°C and humidity within the range of 10 to 95%RH. Only use the sensor within these ranges. If extremely severe temperature changes occur, the humidity measurements may appear abnormal.
Page 11
Cautions about using the Sensors [Handling the temperature-humidity sensor] - The service life of humidity sensors can vary greatly depending on operating environment.Periodic calibration may be required. During use the temperature-humidity sensor will accumulate impurities (dirt) on the surface of the sensor is being used in a bad environment (smoky or dusty places) it may be necessary to change the sensor sooner.
-Temperature Measuring Range: 0 to 50°C (with supplied temp-humidity sensor) The TR-73U with the internal temperature sensor can measure and record in a range of -10 to 60°C, but by purchasing one of our optional temperature sensors it is possible to measure and record in the wider range of -40 to 110°C.
