Application area
The measuring device is used to measure temperatures in liquids, in air or in semi-solid (plastic or organic) materials.
Note on the maximum immersion depth for the to measuring medium:
V215: <140°C maximum 160 mm
V315: <140°C maximum 260mm
V215: >140°C maximum 120 mm
V315: >140°C maximum 200 mm
See Fig. G: If the maximum device temperature (temperature measurement by a sensor at the display) is exceeded, the device must be taken into a cooler environment immediately.
Device operation
Starting up the device
Power on / off
Take the device out of the bag. The battery cover is on the back. The
battery is factory installed already . When switched off, the display shows
the battery capacity. The device has two buttons. (Fig. A). To switch on,
press one of the two buttons.
Note: Both buttons switch the device on
The display briefly shows the firmware version and then the currently measured temperature. The temperature sensor is located in the probe tip. In order to measure the correct temperature, the sensor should be at least 50 mm in the medium to be measured. To switch off device, press power key for 2seconds. Device confirms on and off with a beep. The black/white display orientation auto-adjusts to the device position in space,reading direction is always correct. Device switches to standby after 10 minutes. When switching off, the display flickers for 3 seconds. This is required to correctly clear the paperwhite display.
Deactivating turn-off timer
During normal operation, the measuring device shows the remaining operating
time in minutes and seconds in the right-hand corner of the display (Fig: C,
7 ). The device switches off after the time has elapsed. A short press of
the power key or use of the menue key restarts the counter. This turn-off
timer can be deactivated: While switching the device on, press and hold the
power button (1) for 4 seconds until the beep. The device now shows the symbol
∞ (Fig: C, 8) , indicating continuous operation mode. To deactivate this
function, repeat the process.
Setup menue
Pressing and holding the mode button takes you to a submenu. The device
remains in the submenu until the mode button is released. It toggles through
menu items every second. Once the key is released, the selected function is
changed:
Menu items
MIN-MAX on/off
Switch minimum, maximum and average values on or off. Statistics reset with
each activation of MIN-MAX values.
°C/°F
Select Celsius or Fahrenheit display
0,01/0,1 (Display resolution)
The display resolution changes between 0.1° and 0.01°
BACK
Exit setup menue without changes
Trend display
The measured temperature value is shown in connection with a trend display
(Fig: C, 9):
: temperature rises rapidly
: temperature rises slowly
:temperature remains constant
: temperature drops rapidly
: temperature drops slowly
Ambient conditions (Fig: G)
Thepermitteddevicetemperatureis32°F-122°F. Aseparatetemperature sensor
measures the device temperature directly behind the display. If the device
temperature exceeds the allowed range, a warning flashes on the display.
Return device to regular temperature immediately to avoid damage.
Battery replacement / Battery status display
Replace batteries when the low battery indicator in the right corner of the display (Fig: C, 6) appears .
- Open battery compartment screw with a Phillips screwdriver. Replace the two batteries. Polarity is indicated on battery case bottom.
- Close battery compartment.
