OPERATION
Once the sensor is in position and the appropriate power, air, water, and cable con-
nections are secure, the system is ready for continuous operation by completing the
following simple steps:
1. Turn on the power supply
2. Turn on the instrument or PC
3. Read / monitor the temperature
IMPORTANT
Be aware of the following when using the sensor:
• If the sensor is exposed to significant changes in ambient temperature (hot to
cold, or cold to hot), allow 20 minutes for the temperature to stabilise before tak-
ing or recording measurements.
• Do not operate the sensor near large electromagnetic fields (e.g. around arc
welders or induction heaters). Electromagnetic interference can cause measure-
ment errors.
• Wire must be connected only to the appropriate terminals.
