    WIKA service engineer. Handle electronic precision measuring instruments with the required care (protect from humidity, impacts, strong magnetic fields, static electricity and extreme temperatures, do not insert any objects into the instrument or its openings).
  • Page 11: Responsibility Of The Operator

    3. Safety Responsibility of the operator The model CTH7000 hand-held thermometer is a high performance 2-channel thermometer for Pt100 and thermistor probes. The operator is therefore responsible for legal obligations regarding safety at work. The safety instructions within these operating instructions, as well as the safety, accident prevention and environmental protection regulations for the application area must be maintained.
  • Page 12: Safety Marks

    This marking on the instruments indicates that they must not be disposed of in domestic waste. The disposal is carried out by return to the manufacturer or by the corresponding municipal authorities (see EU directive 2012/19/EU). WIKA Operating Instruction, model CTH7000...
  • Page 13: Design And Function

    For PRTs, the relationship between resistance and temperature varies slightly from one PRT to another. Therefore, no matter how accurately the CTH7000 measures the PRT resistance, if the relationship between resistance and temperature for a particular PRT is not known, accurate temperature measurement is not possible.

    There are two input channels; two 5 pin DIN input-sockets are located at the top of the instrument. These are designed to take either PRT or thermistor probes. Channel A is colour-coded red. Channel B is colour-coded blue. Channel A (red) Channel B (blue) WIKA Operating Instruction, model CTH7000...
  • Page 17 Smart probes (described in section 4.5) contain their own calibration information and communicate this to the CTH7000 as soon as they are used. Passive probes do not contain calibration information and the CTH7000 must be set-up with the calibration information for each probe used (and each time the probe is changed).
