5 THE SENSORS (continued)
TO AVOID DAMAGE
Do not use excessive force when measuring surface
temperature. Light contact between the probe and the surface is
sufficient. Using force does not increase the measuring speed
or improve the accuracy of the measurement, but it does
increase wear and/or damage to the sensor tip.
Do not drag the surface temperature probe over the surface to
avoid excessive wear.
The humidity sensor is fragile and should never be touched. Do
not use compressed air to clean the sensors or the gauge.
If the surface of the humidity sensor becomes saturated with
moisture, allow the moisture to evaporate fully in a dry
environment before using the gauge to take measurements.
Protect the gauge from paint dust and dirt as much as possible
as these can affect the long term accuracy of the humidity
sensor. Always keep the gauge in its protective pouch when not
in use.
Do not wash the sensors in water or with solvents.
6 SETTING LIMITS
A lower and/or upper limit can be set by the user for any or all the
climatic parameters.
Limits can be set for individual readings (when not in Batching) or
limits can be set for each batch (when in Batching).
To set limits for individual readings (Model S & T):
