GENERAL INFORMATION
The OI^EGA® IVIodels 873C and 873F are Hand Held Digital Thermo­meters. Both instruments have large easy to read liquid crystal displays (LCD).
The input connection consists of a subminiature, type K thermo­couple, female connector (SMP-K-F). This input accommodates any OMEGA type K thermocouple probe fitted with an SMP-K-M connec­tor. Cold junction electronic circuitry compensates for ambient temperature changes. These instruments also provide piece-wise linearization conformity for thermocouple non­linearity. The instruments are powered by a 9V battery. Continuous operation of 350 hours is typical with an alkaline battery or 200 hours typical with a carbon-zinc battery.
The Model 873C measures temperature from - 55°C to 1000°C on
two ranges. The 200°C range measures temperature from -55.0°C to
199.9°C with a resolution of 0.1°C. The 1000°C range measures temperature from -55°C to 1000°C with a resolution of 1°C. The ac­curacy is ± (0.25% rdg of rdg -l-2°C) for -40°C to -55°C.

ranges. The 200°F range measures temperature from -60.0°F to
199.9°F with a resolution of 0.1°F. The 2000°F range measures temperature from -60°F to 1999°F with a resolution of 1°F. The ac­curacy of the Model 873°F is ±(0.25% of rdg -i-2.0°F).

OPERATION
The 873C and 873F Hand Held Digital Thermometers are easy to use There is only one control (located on the side of the instrument) that turns the instrument on/off and selects the range. (See Figures 1 and
2).
Use the following procedure to operate the instrument:
1.
Turn on the power to the instrument by selecting the desired range.
Model 873C: A. 200°C range is the center position of the ON/OFF range switch. B. 1000°C range is the upper position of the ON/OFF range switch.
Model 873F:
A. 200°F range is the center position of the ON/OFF range switch.
B. 2000°F range is the upper position of the ON/OFF range switch.
2.
Select the appropriate temperature probe and insert it into the input
jack.
3. Make the measurement: A. Touch the probe tip to the material to be measured.
B. Read the display. The reading is in Celsius for the Model 873C.
The reading is in Fahrenheit for the Model 873F.
NOTE
An open sensor or overrange condition is indicated by:
CAUTION Do not attempt to measure temperatures beyond the range of the probe being used. Probe damage may occur.
WARNING
A shock hazard exists on the Models 8730 and 873F Input jacks when probes
or
sensors are exposed
to
voltage levels greater than 42V peak to earth ground.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.
Do not touch the probe tip when measuring excessively high or low
temperature.
2.
Do not exceed 42V peak from the probe tip or input jack to earth
ground.

PROBE MATCHING
To improve the accuracy of the Model 873 while using a particular proJTe, calibration can be adjusted so that probe errors in the region
of zero (0.0°C or 32°F) are compensated. Place the probe in an ice
bath and allow the reading to stabilize. Then reset the zero adjustment (R112) to a
0.0°C
or 32°F reading.
TROUBLESHOOTING
The following troubleshooting information is intended to be used by qualified electronic maintenance personnel who are familiar with the proper use of standard electronic test equipment.
To gain access to the PC board, refer to the disassembly instructions.
Use the parts list, schematic diagram and component layout to

SPECIAL HANDLING OF STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES
CMOS devices are designed to function at high impedance levels. Normal static charge can destroy these devices. Table 4 lists all the static sensitive devices for the Models 873C and 873F. Steps 1
through 7 provide instructions on how to avoid damaging these
devices.
Table 4. Static Sensitive Devices
Schematic
Designation
U104 U105
U107 U108
U109
1.
Devices should be handled and transported in protective
tainers, antistatic tubes or conductive foam.
2.
Use a properiy grounded work bench and a grounding wriststrap.
3. Handle devices by the body only.
4.
Printed circuit boards must be grounded to bench while inserting
devices.
5. Use antistatic solder removers.
6. Use grounded tip soldering irons.
7. After devices are soldered or inserted into sockets they are pro­tected and normal handling can resume.
