Function / Application

The digital thermometer is used to measure temperature and temperature differences with the aid of exchangeable type K/J/T/E thermcouples/sensors. The digital thermometer is predominantly used for temperature measurement in laboratories and in industrial applications. With the aid of the MAX function it is possible to determine limit temperature infringements in extended series of measurements.

Read operating instructions

General instructions

– If the thermometer is subject to large fluctuations in the ambient temperature, after the temperature has stabilised, wait 20 minutes before performing a measurement.
– Always ensure adequate thermal coupling at the measuring point in order to avoid measuring errors caused by temperature loss.
– Please note that all thermometers with a contact sensor influence the measurement and their thermal capacity can reduce the actual temperature. More thermal energy should therefore be applied to the thermocouple than it can dissipate.
– Four lines will appear in line A if no thermocouple is connected.
– Lo or Hi will be displayed if the measured temperature is outside the measuring range.
– Only use the correct type of thermocouple (type K, J, T or E) and make sure that the device is set to the corresponding type. The wrong type can cause significant measuring errors.
– In addition to being subject to ageing, a thermocouple is also greatly depending on the operating conditions and should therefore be checked regularly.
– High pressure or mechanical deformation can change the grid structure and therefore have an influence on the thermoelectric voltage output.
– The thermometer and thermocouples have different measuring ranges and accuracies and therefore need to be considered separately.

[1] Inserting batteries

Open the battery compartment and insert batteries according to the symbols. Be sure to pay attention to polarity.

With one thermocouple

When measuring with one thermocouple, the measured value of the connected thermocouple T1 or T2 is shown in line A. The display shows whether T1 or T2 is connected.

With two thermocouples

The measured value of thermocouple T1 is shown in line A and the measured value of thermocouple T2 in line B.

[6] Show MAX / MIN / AVG / T2-T1

With one thermocouple

| TIP: When line A is set to MAX and line B to MIN a direct MAX/MIN comparison can be made with one thermocouple.

Data transfer

This device has digital connectivity which allows wireless data transfer to mobile devices such as smart phones or tablets with a wireless interface.

The system prerequisites for a digital connection are specified at
http://laserliner.com/info?an=ble

This device can generate a wireless connection to devices which are compatible with the wireless standard IEEE 802.15.4. The wireless standard IEEE 802.15.4 is a transfer protocol for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN). The range is set to a maximum distance of 10 m from the terminal device and greatly depends on the ambient conditions such as the thickness and composition of walls, sources of interference as well as the transmit / receive properties of the terminal device.

Application (app)

An app is required to use the digital connection.
You can download the app from the corresponding stores for the specific type of terminal device:

| Make sure that the wireless interface of the mobile device is activated.
---|---

After starting the app and activating the digital connection, a connection can be set up between a mobile device and the measuring device.

If the app detects several active measuring devices, select the matching device.

This measuring device can be connected automatically the next time it is switched on.

Information on maintenance and care

Clean all components with a damp cloth and do not use cleaning agents, scouring agents and solvents.
Remove the battery pack before storing for longer periods. Store the device in a clean and dry place.
Do not touch the lens.

Calibration

The measuring device must be calibrated and tested on a regular basis to ensure it is accurate and working properly. We recommend carrying out calibration once a year. Contact your distributor or the UMAREX-LASERLINER service department.
