THERMOCOUPLE
The sensor supplied is a fast response beaded Type-K thermocouple.
Maximum temperature for this sensor is 482 °F (250 °C), with short
term usage to 572 °F (300 °C). Accessory thermocouples are
available for measuring temperatures throughout the entire range of
the unit (See “Accessories”).
Only Type-K thermocouples may be used with this unit.
Longer leads and extensions may be used. The lead effect for 164
feet (50 meters) is generally less than 0.2 °C with a limit of error of
2.2 °C. Type-K wire and connectors must be used.
OPERATION
Insert the thermocouple plug into the socket at the lower edge of the
instrument. The plug and socket are keyed with a small and large
pin. Make certain the plug is inserted correctly, do not insert the plug
incorrectly and force it.
Slide the ON/OFF switch to ON to turn the unit on. If there is no
thermocouple (an open condition) the unit displays a 1 on the left side.
Place the thermocouple in contact with the material to be measured
and read the temperature on the display.
Slide the ON/OFF switch to OFF to turn the unit off. To conserve
battery life, always turn the unit off when not in use.

ALL OPERATIONAL DIFFICULTIES
If this unit does not function properly for any reason, replace the
battery with a new high quality battery (see the “Battery
Replacement” section). Low battery power can occasionally cause
any number of “apparent” operational difficulties. Replacing the
battery with a new fresh battery will solve most difficulties.
BATTERY REPLACEMENT
Erratic readings, faint readings, no display or LO BAT appearing on
the display are all indications that the battery should be replaced. To
replace the battery, slide the battery cover, located on the back of the
unit, in the direction of the arrow (away from the instrument).
Remove the exhausted battery and replace it with a new 9 volt
alkaline battery. Replace the battery cover.
