2.0 Introduction The JOFRA DLC-155, DLC-158, DLC-250 and DLC- 700 probes are designed for fast and traceable calibration and temperature measuring with JOFRA RTC-156/157 B/C, JOFRA RTC-158 B/C, JOFRA RTC-250 B/C and JOFRA RTC-700 B/C systems and are ready for use. Please read this manual carefully before use, to obtain maximum value of your calibration system.
3.0 Functionality Functional description The probes can be used for temperatures in the range : DLC-155 : -60°C to 155°C / -76°F to 311°F DLC-158 : -60°C to 155°C / -76°F to 311°F DLC-250 : 0°C to 250°C / 32°F to 482°F ...

4.0 Operation Operation area All the probes are intended for use in areas which meet the following: Ambient temperature range -20°C to 70°C (-4°F to 158°F) Humidity 0% to 90% Protection class : IP 50 Warning Do not use in hazardous areas. 127414 20-12-2010...
5.0 Maintenance The probe does not require specific maintenance before or after use. The user may carry out the following procedure himself: Cleaning the probe : Use alcohol or water and a soft cloth Caution… The probe must always be protected against any mechanical damage.
An insert with correct size holes for the DLC- probe and the temperature probe. For calibrating DLC-155, DLC-158 and DLC-250: an AMETEK 127587 temperature probe (recommended) or similar with short measuring zone is required. For calibrating DLC-700: a STS-200 A 970 temperature probe (recommended) or similar is required.
