Operation

3.

The normal operating temperature range is between 60º and 90º F (15º and

32º C). If used outside this range, an additional error will be introduced. This

error can be approximated as -0.1% per Fahrenheit degree. The negative

temperature coefficient means that the instrument reads high at lower

temperatures and low at higher temperatures.
