Getting started FAST!
Don’t start a fire!! Read the safety chapter for your own and your environments safety.
Read the chapter “Introduction to calibration” if you do not have the full and whole
understanding of the use of dry well calibrator as the TC65M/TC15M.
1. Make sure the supply voltage is in accordance with the description on the label.
2. Make sure the calibrator well and the probe you want to calibrate is clean.
3. Place the probe in an appropriate hole in the well*.
4. Turn on the calibrator.
5. The display on the calibrator controller will show the actual well temperature and the set
point will show 25°C. Default is shown as °C. See chapter 5. for switching the display to
show °F.
6. Press the up and down buttons multiple times on the controller in order to set the desired
calibration temperature (set point). The display will automatically switch to show the set
point when the up/down buttons are pressed. When pressing and holding one of these
buttons the display will start to count up or down. If the buttons are held continuously, the
counting speed will increase. The set point will not be active before you move to the next
step.
7. After setting the set point, the display will return back to show actual well temperature 3
seconds after the last depressing of the set buttons. You can now switch between set point
and well temperature by pressing the set button once. This will not affect the set point or
anything else in the process.
8. Let the temperature reach and stabilize at the set point. Check both the calibrator and
calibration object to determine if the temperature is stabile.
9. When both the calibrator and calibration object is stabile, note both readings.
10. Set the next calibration point with the up/down buttons and repeat point 5 to 8.
11. When all desired calibration points are completed, set the set point to 25°C and let the well
temperature decrease to a temperature below 50°C before you store the calibrator.
12. File the calibration data.
* If your probe has another diameter than those supplied, use an insert adapter, drilled to the
correct diameter. A more thorough description of the above points is found in the chapter
“How to use the TC65M/TC15M calibrator”.
