Safety Information
If this equipment is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer, the
protection provided by the equipment may be impaired or safety hazards may
arise.
Inspect the instrument for damage before each use. DO NOT use the instrument if it appears damaged or operates abnormally.
Before initial use, or after transport, or after storage in humid or semi-humid
environments, or anytime the instrument has not been energized for more than
10 days, the instrument needs to be energized for a “dry-out” period of 2 hours
before it can be assumed to meet all of the safety requirements of the IEC
1010-1. If the product is wet or has been in a wet environment, take necessary
measures to remove moisture prior to applying power such as storage in a low
humidity temperature chamber operating at 50°C for 4 hours or more.
The instrument is intended for indoor use only.
The instrument has a built-in carrying case. Ensure the carrying case in closed
securely and the latches are securely in place when lifting the instrument. Lift
the instrument by the handle provided to move the instrument. DO NOT close
the case and move the instrument until the display reads less than 100°C
(212°F).
BURN HAZARD
ALWAYS ensure the instrument is COOL before closing the instrument for
storage.
DO NOT touch the well access surface of the unit.
• The temperature of the well access is the same as the actual temperature
shown on the display, e.g. if the unit is set at 350°C and the display reads
350°C, the well is at 350°C.
• Ensure the power cord is positioned in such a way as it cannot contact hot
surfaces or temperature probes. Always inspect power cord before use for
any damage to the insulation due to contact with hot surfaces, cuts or
abrasions.
• The top sheet metal of the instrument may exhibit extreme temperatures
for areas close to the well access.
• DO NOT turn off the unit at temperatures higher than 100°C. This could
create a hazardous situation. Select a set-point less that 100°C and allow
the unit to cool before turning it off.
• DO NOT remove inserts at high temperatures. Inserts will be the same
temperature as the display temperature. Use extreme care when removing
hot inserts,
DO NOT operate near flammable materials. Extreme temperatures could ignite
the flammable material.
Use of this instrument at HIGH TEMPERATURES for extended periods of
time requires caution.

ELECTRICAL HAZARD
These guidelines must be followed to ensure that the safety mechanisms in this
instrument will operate properly. This instrument must be plugged into a 115
VAC (± 10%) or 230 VAC (± 10%) 50/60 Hz only electric outlet as indicated
on the serial label. The power cord of the instrument is equipped with a
three-pronged grounding plug for your protection against electrical shock hazards. It must be plugged directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. The receptacle must be installed in accordance with local codes and
ordinances or adapter plug. DO NOT use an extension cord Consult a qualified
electrician. Always inspect the power cord before use for any damage to the insulation due to contact with hot surfaces, cuts or abrasions.
The instrument is equipped with operator accessible fuses. If a fuse blows, it
may be due to a power surge or failure of a component. Replace the fuse once.
If the fuse blows a second time, it is likely caused by failure of a component
part. If this occurs, contact a Hart Scientific Authorized Service Center. Always
replace the fuse with one of the same rating, voltage, and type. Never replace
the fuse with one of a higher current rating.
1.2.2
Always replace the power cord with an approved cord of the correct rating and
type. If you have questions, contact a Hart Scientific Authorized Service Center
(see Section 1.3).
High voltage is used in the operation of this equipment. Severe injury or death
may result if personnel fail to observe the safety precautions.
The block vent cover may be hot due to the fan blowing upward.
CAUTIONS
Always operate this instrument at room temperatures as specified in Section
3.2, Environmental Conditions. Allow sufficient air circulation by leaving at
least 6 inches (15 cm) of clearance around the instrument.
Overhead clearance is required. DO NOT place this instrument under a cabinet
or other structure.
DO NOT use fluids to clean out the well. Fluids could leak into and damage
the instrument.
Never introduce any foreign material into the probe hole of the insert. Fluids,
etc. can leak into the instrument causing damage.
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 unit.
DO NOT slam the probe stems into the well. This type of action can cause a
shock to the sensor and affect the calibration.
DO use a ground fault interrupt device.
4
1 Before You Start
Authorized Service Centers
DO NOT operate this instrument in an excessively wet, oily, dusty, or dirty
environment.
The unit is a precision instrument. Although it has been designed for optimum
durability and trouble free operation, it must be handled with care.
Most probes have handle temperature limits. Be sure that the probe handle temperature limit is not exceeded in the air above 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.
When calibrating PRTs always follow correct calibration procedure and calibrate from high temperatures to low temperatures with the appropriate triple
point of water checks.
Components and heater lifetimes can be shortened by continuous high temperature operation.
If a mains supply power fluctuation occurs, immediately turn off the furnace.
Power bumps from brown-outs and black-outs can damage the instrument. Wait
until the power has stabilized before re-energizing the furnace.
The probe and the block may expand at different rates. Allow for probe expansion inside the well as the block heats. Otherwise, the probe may become stuck
in the well.

2 Introduction
The Hart Scientific 9009 Industrial Dual-Block Calibrator may be used as a
portable instrument or bench top temperature calibrator for calibrating thermocouple and RTD temperature probes. The 9009 is small enough to use in the
field, and accurate enough to use in the lab. Calibrations may be done over a
range of –15°C to 350°C (5°F to 622°F). Temperature display resolution of the
9009 is 0.1 degrees.
The dry-well calibrator features:
• Two independently controlled temperature blocks
• Rapid heating and cooling
• Interchangeable multiple hole probe sleeves
• Convenient integrated carrying case
• RS-232 interface
2 Introduction
Built in programmable features include (applicable to both the hot and cold
blocks):
• Temperature scan rate control
• Eight set-point memory
• Adjustable readout in °C or °F
The temperature of each well is accurately controlled by a precision Hart Scientific controller. The controller uses a precision platinum RTD as a sensor and
controls the hot temperature block with a solid state relay (triac) driven heater.
A thermal electric device (TED) controls the cold temperature block.
The LED front panel continuously shows the current well temperature. The
temperature may be easily set with the control buttons to any desired temperature within the specified range. The calibrator’s multiple fault protection devices insure user and instrument safety and protection.
Note: When one of the temperature blocks is being accessed through the front
panel, the other temperature block control panel is not accessible. Always press
the “EXIT” button to exit the control panel being used.
The 9009 calibrator was designed for portability, low cost, and ease of operation. Through proper use, the instrument will provide continued accurate calibration of temperature sensors and devices. The user should be familiar with
the safety guidelines and operating procedures of the calibrator as described in
the instruction manual.
