TRANSALIM Temperature and Humidity Monitoring
Product Information
The TRANSALIM is a temperature monitoring device that comes with a pack of 100 charts, 1 set of keys, 1 recording media with 1 battery preinstalled to be changed before starting up, 1 spare battery, 1 fiber tip pen per measuring channel, and 1 user manual. It has a sensor element with a diameter of 10 mm that needs to be drilled into the area where the temperature is to be monitored. It also has a capillary that needs to be placed in the most representative location of the temperature to be monitored. The device requires a battery to function and has a serrated roller for setting up the chart’s time.
Product Usage Instructions
Before attaching the case on one of the sides, place the recorder vertically (lock toward the bottom) and mark the housing’s attachment points. One upper side hole case should be closed, and 2 lower side hole cases should be open. Note the capillary’s passage point and drill the three holes. Put the pick-up and the capillary in place by drilling a hole having a slightly larger diameter than the sensitive element so as to allow the introduction of the sensor in the area where the temperature is to be monitored. Once the sensitive element and the capillary are put in place in the housing, the case can then be attached on a side. To place in service of the TRANSALIM, one should first put in place: the battery, the diagram, and the fiber tip pen, and proceed in setting the time. To open the case, remove the sealing (if any), place the key in the lock, and open the cover (the key remains inserted in the lock in the open position). Grip the opening device on either side of the lock and pull up the cover up to the locking of the support rod (the cover should be practically perpendicular to the rest of the case). The stylus(es) come up automatically. It is recommended to change the battery before using the recorder for the first time. To install the chart, take out the recording media if it is not already done. Slide the diagram under the chart transparent protector. Position the chart with the help of the 2 lugs. Slip the chart under the holder located in the upper part of the recording media. To install the battery, open the cover and take out the recording media. Setting up the chart’s time is necessary when the recorder is used for the first time, when the battery is changed, and at the passage to and from daylight saving time. Take the recording media out and install a diagram. Open the battery hatch located at the back of the recording media and make the diagram turn with the help of the black serrated roller until the day and time are aligned with the index. If the diagram is late, turn the serrated roller until the day and the time are aligned with the index. If the diagram advances, turn the serrated roller until the diagram shows a delay of at least 4h for 1r/7d in relation to the real-time, then turn the serrated knob in the other direction until the diagram is on time.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
- TRANSALIM is an autonomous recorder designed to supervise and record the air temperature in transport gear under controlled temperature. It allows a quick and easy application of the regulation in force (decree of July 20th, 1998). TRANSALIM comes in an impervious case equipped with a partly transparent cover allowing the reading of recording(s) in progress. The cover is equipped with mechanical locking access to the mechanical parts as well as to the case’s attachment points. TRANSALIM can receive up to 2 measuring elements (gas thermometer) acting directly on the inscribing device and which does not require any source of energy. The sensitive element is a stainless-steel tube filled with a neutral gas linked to the case by a copper capillary tube Ø 1.4 mm.
- TRANSALIM is equipped with a removable recording media that receives the diagram and its driving mechanism: a real-time quartz clock, powered by a standard battery (LR6 type), assuring an automatic timing of the diagram when it is changed for as long as the battery is in a working state. An interchangeable recording media is available for 1 rotation per 7 days speeds.
- Each TRANSALIM comes in an anti-shock package and is delivered with:
- 1 pack of 100 charts,
- 1 set of keys,
- 1 recording media with 1 battery preinstalled to be changed before starting up, 1 spare battery,
- 1 fiber tip pen per measuring channel, 1 user manual.
INSTALLATION
Advice
Before attaching the case on one of the sides:
Place the recorder vertically (lock toward the bottom) and mark the housing’s attachment points.
- upper side hole case closed,
- lower side holes case open.
- note the capillary’s passage point
- drill the three holes
Putting the pickup and the capillary in place
Advice
The capillary, supplied rolled in a circle of about Ø 10 cm, should be
unrolled in the direction of the plan of the circle and not pulled out in a
perpendicular way which would give it a twisting movement that could
deteriorate it. Putting the capillary in place should be done so as to avoid
the capillary being submitted to any rubbing or that it be in contact with
products able to corrode it.
Warning: Don’t pinch the capillary during the installation. Any mounting
that implies a direct and repeated flexion of the capillary will bring on its
rupture and will consequently put the whole temperature measuring unit out of
service.
Warning: the capillary’s minimal curve radius is 5 mm. So as to ensure
the metrological performance announces, the sensitive element should be
introduced in the area to control together with the complete capillary minus
50 cm (+/- 30 cm).
The sensor should then be put in a place where the air circulates while
avoiding that it be submitted to the direct influence of cold-producing
elements of the surroundings or of a source of heat.
Procedure
- For the sensitive element having a diameter of 10 mm, drill a hole having a slightly larger diameter so as to allow the introduction of the sensor in the area where the temperature is to be monitored.
- Put in place the sensitive element together with the complete capillary and place it in the most representative location of the temperature to be monitored.
- Avoid any large influences (see advice).
Setting up the case
Once the sensitive element and the capillary are put in place in the
housing, the case can then be attached on a side.
For the placing in service of the TRANSALIM, one should first put in place: the battery, the diagram, and the fiber tip pen and proceed in setting the time.
Opening the case
- Remove the sealing (if any), place the key in the lock, and open the cover (the key remains inserted in the lock in the open position). Grip the opening device on either side of the lock (1).
- Pull up the cover (2) up to the locking of the support rod (the cover should be practically perpendicular to the rest of the case).
- The stylus(es) come up automatically
Installing the chart
It is recommended to change the battery before using the recorder at first
time
- Take out the recording media if it is not already done.
- Slide the diagram under the chart transparent protector.
- Position the chart with the help of the 2 lugs.
- Slip the chart under the holder located in the upper part of the recording media.m
Installing the battery
- Open the cover.
- Take out the recording media.

It is recommended to change the battery every 6 months.
Setting up the chart’s time
Setting up the chart’s time is necessary when the recorder is used for the
first time, when the battery is changed and at the passage to and from
daylight saving time.
- Take the recording media out.

- Open the battery hatch located at the back of the recording media.
- Make the diagram turn with the help of the black serrated roller until the day and time are aligned with the index.
Advice
- If the diagram is late: Turn the serrated roller until the day and the time are aligned with the index.
- If the diagram advances: Turn the serrated roller until the diagram shows a delay of at least 4h for 1r/7d in relation to the real time, then turn the serrated knob in the other direction until the diagram is on time.
- Close the battery hatch.
Installing the fiber tip pen(s)
- Open the cover if not already done.
- The stylus(es) come up automatically.
- Put the ends of each stylus in the fiber tip pen(s) and slide(s) up to the end stop.
- Take out the pen(s) protection(s) by pulling and turning simultaneously.
- The fiber tip pen(s) will position itself/ themselves on the chart by closing the cover.
Warning: do not place the pen’s fiber tip in contact with the fingers.
Installing the recording media
