Safety Information

1 Before You Start

1.1 Introduction

The Reference Thermometers (1523, 1524) are designed to be reliable, stable, tem­perature measuring instruments that can be used in the eld or laboratory. They offer accuracy, portability, and speed for nearly every eld calibration application. The instruments have been designed with the eld user in mind and are easy to use while maintaining stability, uniformity, and accuracy comparable to some laboratory instru­ments. Your Fluke 1523 and 1524 thermometers are a handheld, battery operated instrument that measures temperature using Platinum resistance Thermometers (PRT), Thermistors, and Thermocouples (TC).

1.2 Standard Equipment

Unpack the instrument carefully and inspect it for any damage that may have occurred during shipment. If there is shipping damage, notify the carrier immediately.
Verify that the following components are present:
1523/1524 Reference Thermometer with 3 AA batteries
AC Adapter, with power cord
RS-232 Cable
User’s Guide
Documentation CD
Report of Calibration and calibration label
Clamp-on ferrite(s)
If all items are not present, contact an Authorized Service Center. (See Section 1.8, Authorized Service Centers on page 5.)

1.3 Safety Information

The Reference Thermometer is designed in accordance with EN 61010-1 {2nd Edi­tion}, and CAN/CSA 22.2 No 61010.1-04. Use this instrument only as specied in this manual, otherwise the protection provided by the instrument may be impaired.
A Warning identies conditions and actions that pose hazard(s) to the user; a Caution identies conditions and actions that may damage the instrument being used.
International symbols used on the reference thermometer and in this manual are ex­plained in Table 1 on page 3.
1.3.1 Warning
To avoid possible electric shock or personal injury:
Do not use the reference thermometer in environments other than those listed in the user’s guide.
1
1523, 1524 Reference Thermometer
Safety Information
Do not use the reference thermometer for any application other than that which is specied. The instrument was designed for temperature measurement and calibration. Any other use of the instrument may cause unknown hazards to the user.
If the reference thermometer is used in a manner not in accordance with the equipment design, the operation and the protection provided by the instrument may be impaired. In addition, safety hazards may arise.
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the reference thermometer, between the inputs, or between any input and earth ground (30 V, 24 mA max all terminals).
Follow all equipment safety procedures.
Calibration equipment should only be used by trained personnel.
The reference thermometer is intended for indoor use only.
Before you use the instrument, inspect the case. Look for cracks or missing plastic. Pay particular attention to the insulation surrounding the connectors. Do not use the reference thermometer if it appears damaged or operates abnormally. Protection may be impaired. When in doubt, have the instrument serviced.
Always use an isolated RTD or PRT (metal sheath isolated from lead wires).
Make sure the battery door is closed and latched before you operate the reference thermometer.
Do not operate the reference thermometer around explosive gas, vapor, or dust.
For battery operation use only 3 AA batteries, properly installed in the reference thermometer case.
On the 1524 model, thermocouples can only be used on channel 1.

1.3.2 Cautions

To avoid possible damage to the reference thermometer or to equipment under test:
Do not apply more than the rated voltage, as marked on the reference thermometer, between the inputs, or between any input and earth ground (30 V 24 mA max all terminals).
Unless recalibrating the instrument DO NOT change the values of the calibration constants from the factory set values. The correct setting of these parameters is important to the safety and proper operation of the instrument.
The instrument and any thermometer probes used with it are sensitive instruments that can be easily damaged. Always handle these devices with care. DO NOT allow them to be dropped, struck, stressed, or overheated.
DO NOT operate this instrument in an excessively wet, oily, dusty, or dirty environment.
Use the proper probes, function and range for your measurement.
Ensure probe coefcients are downloaded.

1.4.1 EMC Directive

Hart Scientic’s equipment has been tested to meet the European Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive (EMC Directive, 2004/108/EC ). The Declaration of Confor­mity for your instrument lists the specic standards to which the unit was tested.
The instrument was designed specically as a test and measuring device. Compliance to the EMC directive is through EN 61326-1:2006 Electrical equipment for measure­ment, control and laboratory use – EMC requirements
As noted in the EN 61326-1, the instrument can have varying congurations. The instrument was tested in a typical conguration with shielded RS-232 cables.

1.4.2 Immunity Testing

1.4.2.1 For Use As a Portable (Hand-held) Instrument
The instrument was tested to Basic Immunity Requirements for portable test and mea­surement equipment.

1523, 1524 Reference Thermometer
Using Clamp-On Ferrites
1.4.2.2 For Use As a Benchtop Instrument (AC Adapter)
The instrument was tested to Immunity Requirements for Controlled EM Environ­ments. Utilized in this state the instrument is designed to operate in a controlled electromagnetic environment. The instrument experiences degradation in the presence of strong elds in the frequency range of 150 to 200 MHz and we suggest that it not be used in close proximity to VHF transmitters.

1.4.3 Locking out non SI units

Through a specic key-press sequence, the user can choose to disable the °C °F toggle switch so that temperature is displayed in SI units only. Once the units toggle switch has been locked, subsequent key presses will not allow temperature to be displayed in °F.
Instructions for locking out non SI units (see illustration below)
1. Simultaneously press and hold down the °C °F key and the BACKLIGHT key, press the POWER ON key
2. The display will read: SI units only ON
3. Release the °C °F and the BACKLIGHT key
4. The °C °F key will no longer toggle between units
