GENERAL DESCRIPTION

HI 9043 and HI 9044 are microprocessor-based thermometers
which allow temperature measurements using K-type thermo-
couple probes. The non-linearity of the temperature probe is
linearized by the microprocessor.
Standard features include dual-level LCD for simultaneously
displaying of the highest and lowest measured temperatures,
display hold, selectable measurement unit (°C or °F) and resolution
which automatically switches from 0.1° to 1° for temperatures
above 200°C (400°F).
The meters are also provided with low battery detection and
BEPS (Battery Error Preventing System), which turns the unit
off when the battery is discharged avoiding erroneous read-
ings caused by low battery level.
• HI 9043 is supplied complete with a 9V battery and
instruction manual.
• HI 9044 is supplied complete with HI 766E2 fixed
temperature probe, a 9V battery and instruction manual.

at the factory. It is generally recommended to have all
thermometers recalibrated at least once a year.
For an accurate annual recalibration, contact your dealer or
the nearest Hanna Service Center.
