    12 months from date of shipment. Repair or replacement will be made at no charge at the discretion of Physitemp if the defect is not the result of misuse or abuse. Physitemp accepts no consequential liabilty for delay in delivery, alleged faulty performance of the product, or for any other cause.
  • Page 3 Add this difference to the subsequent reading when using the perpendi- cular position. 11.12 BAT-10 with a suitable probe has the ability to measure surface gradients, giving almost instant readings at each point. This feature enables heat sinks to be designed without guesswork, for maximum efficiency with minimum metal.
  • Page 4 Breathing near the microprobe will produce wide fluctuations. These effects indicate the sensitivity of the BAT-10/microprobe combination, due to high discrimi- nation of the instrument and almost instant response of the probe. Fluctuations can easily be elimi- nated by bringing the probe into contact with a metallic object, thus increasing its effective mass and slowing the response.

    The first of these was Bailey thermometer BAT-4, which was designed in 1969 and is now in use throughout the world. Your BAT-10 is an advanced version of the original equipment using the latest low power digital technology and compensated electronic reference cir- cuitry.

    Ambient Operating Range: 15 - 45°C Readout: 3 1/2 digits Batteries: BAT-10 - 4 alkaline “C” cells (Battery life, 1000 hours) BAT-10R - (rechargeable unit) - 4 NI-Cads Special Display LO-BAT appears on display when battery voltage is low, but Indications: several hours of life remain.
  • Page 7 Follow the instruction above but install four rechargeable N-Cad batteries. RECHARGING THE BATTIERIES Plug the Physitemp AC charger (9V @ 50 to 200mA AC) into AC input socket on the back panel and connect to AC supply. Allow 16 hours for complete recharging.
  • Page 8 When using BAT-10 for differential measurements not centered on the 40°C reference, a correc- tion must be introduced to accomodate changes in sensitivity and linearization at different refer- ence temperatures. In general, differential measurements are quite correct when the difference reading is small and both sensors are in the 20-60°C range.
  • Page 9 • When making differential measurements in an electrically conductive medium, at least one of the probes should be electrically isolated from the medium. The fol- lowing Physitemp probes are isolated: RET-1, ESO-1, IT-14, IT-18, IT-21, IT-23, IT-1E, TFT series. We can also supply an insulated version of our MT-23 micro-...
