The device is measuring temperature in °C or °F.
The safety requirements (see below) have to be observed.
The device must be used only according to its intended purpose and under suitable conditions.
Use the device carefully and according to its technical data (do not throw it, strike it, …).
2 General Note
Read this document carefully and get used to the operation of the device before you use it. Keep
this document within reach for consulting in case of doubt.
If the device is stored at temperatures above 50°C the battery has to be removed from the device.
NOTE: We recommend taking out battery if device is not used for a longer period of time.
This device has been designed and tested in accordance with the safety regulations for electronic devices.
However, its trouble-free operation and reliability cannot be guaranteed unless the standard safety measures
and special safety advises given in this manual will be adhered to when using the device.
1. Trouble-free operation and reliability of the device can only be guaranteed if the device is not subjected to
any other climatic conditions than those stated under "Specification".
If the device is transported from a cold to a warm environment condensation may cause in a failure of the
function. In such a case make sure the device temperature has adjusted to the ambient temperature
before trying a new start-up.
2. WARNING: If there is a risk whatsoever involved in running it, the device has to be switched off
immediately and to be marked accordingly to avoid re-starting.
Operator safety may be a risk if:
- there is visible damage to the device
- the device is not working as specified
- the device has been stored under unsuitable conditions for a longer time.
In case of doubt, please return device to manufacturer for repair or maintenance.
3. WARNING: Do not use these products as safety or emergency stop devices or in any other application
where failure of the product could result in personal injury or material damage.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result in death or serious injury and material
damage.
The device has a very good system accuracy (please refer to technical data). This is due to the calibration of
the probe acc. To the connected instrument plus the use of precise measurement electronics and premium
Pt1000 sensor elements
Heat loss caused by probe construction:
Especially when measuring temperatures which deviate very much from the ambient temperature, measuring
errors often occur if the heat loss caused by the probe is not considered. When measuring fluids therefore
the probe should be emerged sufficiently deep (at least 5 times of diameter, i.e.>15mm) and be stirred
continuously. When measuring gases the probe should also emerge as deep as possible in the gas to be
measured (e.g. when measuring in channel/pipes) and the gas should flow around the probe at sufficient
flow.
Allowable Temperature Range Of Probes
For the two variants there are different application areas:
GMH 2710: (black plastic handle)
The allowable temperature range of -200 to 200 °C only is valid for the probe tube, the (plastic) handle must
not be heated above 80°C, the cable utmost 105°C! Therefore only front part of the stainless steel tube is
allowed to be heated above 80°C!
GMH 2710-K (white Teflon handle)
Both cable and handle are capable of -200 bis +250°C!
7 Configuration of the Device
Follow these instructions to configure the functions of the device:
Switch the device on.
Press and together until the first parameter “UNIT” is displayed.
Set parameter with = up or = down.
Jump to the next parameter by pressing .
Press again to store changed settings, the device restarts (segment test).
NOTE:If there is no key pressed within the menu mode within 2 minutes, the configuration will be
The instrument can be adjusted, assuming that: Reliable references are available, such as icewater regulated precision water baths or similar.
:
Displayed value °C =(measured value °C - OFFS) * (1 + slope correction / 100 )
Displayed value °F =(measured value °F - 32 °F - OFFS) * (1 + slope correction / 100 )
Follow these instructions to adjust the device:
Switch the device on.
Press and together until the first parameter “0FFS” is displayed.
Set parameter with = up or = down
Jump to the next parameter by pressing .
Press again to store changed settings, the device restarts (segment test).
NOTE:If there is no key pressed within the menu mode within 2 minutes, the configuration will
be cancelled, the entered settings are lost!
9 Replacing Batteries
Before changing batteries, please read the following instruction and follow it step by step.
Not following the instruction may cause harm to the instrument or the protection against ingress of water and
dust may be lost!
Avoid unnecessary opening of the instrument!
1. Open the 3 Phillips screws at the backside of the instrument.
2. Lay down the still closed instrument, so that the display side points upwards.
The lower half of the housing incl. The electronics should be kept lying down during battery change.
This avoids loss of the sealing rings of the screw holes.
3. Lift upper half of housing. Keep an eye on the three function keys, to be sure not to damage them.
4. Change carefully the two batteries (Type: AAA).
5. Close the housing, taking care that it is positioned correctly, otherwise the sealing may be damaged.
Afterwards press the two halves together, lay the instrument with display pointing downwards and
screw it together again, beginning with the single lower screw.
Value exceeding measuring range, value too high or cable/sensor broken
ERR. 2
Value exceeding measuring range, value too low or cable/sensor shorted
