The humidity in the air may cause corrosion oxidation on the insertion tube inside the instrument. There is a risk that the insertion tube may get stuck if this is allowed to happen. If the calibrator is to be transported, the insertion tube must be removed from the well to avoid damage to the instrument.
Caution ... • The well and the insertion tube must be clean before use. • The insertion tube must never be forced into the well. The well could be damaged as a result, and the insertion tube may get stuck. •...
3. 7 SWITCH TEST The SWITCH TEST function (cf. fig. 4) automatically locates the opening/closing temperatures of a thermostat. You must enter a T mi n and a T max-temperature which define the range within which the opening/closing temperatures are expected to be found. e;J.

Remove the fuse box. Remove both fuses and insert two new fuses. These must be identical and should correspond to the line voltage. CTC-140: 115V, 2AT = 105014 / 230V, 1AT = 105007 CTC-320/650: 115V, 10AF = 60B302 / 230V, 5AF = 60B301 ...
Switching off the calibrator The following routine must be observed before the insertion tube is removed and the instrument switched off (cf. fig. 1): If the calibrator has been heated up to temperatures above 50°C/122°F, you must wait until the instrument reaches a temperature below 50°C/122°F before you switch it off.
