The bead-type thermocouple probe is suitable for measuring temperatures
from –20 °C to 204 °C in PTFE-compatible environments. Above this
temperature range, the probe may emit toxic gas. Do not immerse this
thermocouple probe in any liquid. For best results, use a thermocouple
probe designed for specific application — an immersion probe for liquid or
gel, and an air probe for air measurement. Observe the following
measurement settings:
• Clean the surface to be measured and ensure that the probe is securely
touching the surface. Remember to disable the applied power.
• When measuring above ambient temperatures, move the thermocouple
along the surface until you get the highest temperature reading.
• When measuring below ambient temperatures, move the thermocouple
along the surface until you get the lowest temperature reading.
• Place the clamp meter in the operating environment for at least 1 hour
as the clamp meter is using non-compensation transfer adapter with
miniature thermal probe.
Do not bend the thermocouple leads at sharp angles. Repeated
bending over a period of time can break the leads.
