TP 17 / TP M / TP Multi Operating the Calibrator / Micro Calibration Bath 7.3.4.3 Setting the duration time (S version) The duration time "dur.t" is active if the set temperature SP1 has been achieved. Subse- quently, the calibrator / micro calibration bath automatically switches to set temperature SP2. The setting range extends from 99:59 [hh:min] to 00:00 [hh:min].
TP 17 / TP M / TP Multi Problems Cleaning calibrators with sleeves: A small amount of brass dust is created when operating calibrators with sleeves, this can cause the metal block and sleeve to jam. To prevent this, remove the sleeves from the heating block at regular intervals and if the calibrator is not going to be operated for a longer period.
DIN ISO 10 012. We recommend you to re- turn the calibrator / micro calibration bath to SIKA at intervals of max. 12 months or approx. 500 operating hours for recalibration and readjustment.
