Cautions about using the Sensors

Cautions about using the temperature sensor TR-0106

The possible temperature measurement range for this sensor is -40 to 110℃ . Please use it within this range.

It is possible to use just one extension cable per temperature sensor.

Cautions about using

the temperature/humidity sensor TR-3100

The sensor can measure temperature within the range of 0 to 50

℃ and humidity within the range

of 10 to 95％ RH. Only use the sensor within these ranges.

If extremely severe temperature changes occur, the humidity measurements may appear abnormal.

Once the sensor's temperature becomes stable, the measurements will return to normal.

This sensor is not waterproof. Do not get wet.

The temperature/humidity sensor cable cannot be extended.

When measuring with the temperature/humidity sensor in an environment of 0 to 50

℃ and less

than 30％ RH, the measurements may sometimes ﬂuctuate. This is not abnormal.

Cautions about using the Sensors

[

Handling the temperature/humidity sensor

]

The temperature

humidit y senso r sh ould probably be c hanged after a period of about one year. After removi ng the sen sor from its package, please change the temperature

humidity sensor after one year’s usage.

During use the temperature

humidity sensor will accumulate impurities (dirt

)

on the surface of the sensor causing the sensor's accuracy and sensitivity to decrease. If the sensor is being used in a bad environment

(

smoky or

dusty places

)

it may be necessary to change the sensor sooner.

When the temperature

humidity sensor is not being used, please place it in the attached vinyl bag with the drying agent included and store it in a cool dark place with a temperature of between 5 to 25

℃

and a humidity of below

30％RH.

Attached to the temperature

humidity sensor are two stickers: a wetness detection sticker and a temperature detection sticker. If either of the stickers show s abn orm ality, you should cha ng e the o ld sen so r t o a new o ne immediately.

Wetness Detection

Sticker

Temperature Detection Sticker

Wetness Detection Sticker

Informs you that the sensor has been wet.

Normal:

Under normal conditions, black dots will appear on a white background.

Abnormal:

Under abnormal conditions, it will turn to red.

Temperature Detection Sticker

Informs you that the sensor measured a temperature measurement over 60℃.

Normal:

Under normal conditions, the number

「60」 will lightly appear on a

pinkish white background.

Abnormal:

Under abnormal conditions, the number

「60」 will clearly appear on a

About Thermo Recorder TR-71U/72U

Outline

TR-71U/TR-72U Thermo Recorders are data loggers capable of measuring, displaying and recording temperature and humidity data. TR-71U has two temperature channels and TR-72U has one temperature and one humidity channel. The data recorded into the TR-71U

/TR-72U un its can then be

downlo aded quickly via USB c abl e to your computer whereby with our exclusive software you can easily process the data into graphs, tables, save to ﬁles and/or print it out. Moreover, it is possible to connect more than one unit at the same time.

Basic Functions

Temperature Measuring Range : -60 to 155℃ (TR-71U)

The TR-71U with the sensor included in this package can measure and record in a range of

-40 to 110℃ , but by purchasing one of our optional

sensors it is possible to measure and record in the wider range of

-60 to

155℃ . Please take a look at our full range of optional sensors to ﬁnd one to match your application.

Humidity Measuring Range : 10 to 95％ RH（TR-72U)

The TR-72U with the sensor included in this package can simultaneously measure and record temperature in a range of 0 to 50

℃

and humidity in a

range of 10 to 95

％

RH.

Data Recording Capacity : 8000 readings × 2 channels

One channel can record and hold up to 8000 measurement readings. If set at a recording interval of 1 hour, a unit can continuously record for about one year.

1 Year of Operation with just 1 AA Alkaline Battery

Our low energy consumption design gives you one year of continuous operation with only one AA alkaline battery. This gives you the freedom to use the data loggers in places where they can be left alone for long periods of time, such as, in transportation or refrigeration.

Note: Battery life varies depending upon the type of battery, the measuring environment, the frequency of communication, and the ambient temperature in which it is used. Speciﬁcations and explanations used in this User's Manual are based on operations carried out with a new battery and are in no way a guarantee of your actual battery life.

Battery Life Warning Display

When the battery power becomes low, a battery life warning signal will appear in the unit’s LCD display. If the battery power becomes even lower the unit will automatically go into sleep mode in order to protect the data.

15 Recording Intervals

Select from 15 Recording Intervals (from 1 second to 1 hour) to meet your needs. Select from 2 Recording Modes

One-time Mode : When the number of recorded readings reaches 8000,

FULL

" will appear in the unit’s LCD display and recording

will automatically stop.

Endless Mode : When the number of recorded readings reaches 8000, the

oldest data reading will be overwritten and recording will continue.

Backup Function

When battery power becomes low, a battery life warning signal will appear in the unit’s LCD display and if the battery power becomes even lower the unit will automatically go into sleep mode in order to protect the data. In sleep mode all normal operations will stop and it will become impossible to switch on the power of the main unit.

Note: If the main unit remains in sleep mode for about 1 month without a change of battery, or if the battery is left out of the unit for more than 2 minutes, all recorded data will be lost.

Current Readings Monitoring Display

With our exclusive software, you cannot only monitor the current measurements at a set interval, but can view those measurements in a continually changing graph. You can simultaneously display the current measurements and corresponding graphs for the number of units you have connected.

Adjustment Function

Bt setting adjustment values beforehand, you can record and display the post-adjusted measurement values. You can choose from two adjustment methods: 1-point and 2

-point. Adjustment will be carried out

using an adjustment equation of Y＝aX + b ; where X is the pre-adjusted measurement value and Y is the post-adjusted value.

Connecting the Sensor

Connecting the Sensor.

[TR-71U]

- If a temperature sensor is connected to only the ch. 2 jack, the internal

sensor will be used to measure for ch. 1.

- To avoid poor connections, be sure to push the sensor connector securely

into the jack.

Note:If a sensor extension cable is being used with the data logger connected by USB to your computer, electromagnetic waves may cause large errors in measurements.

[TR-72U]

Caution:When using the temperature/humidity sensor in environments where the temperature is 0 to 15 and humidity under 30 RH, there may occur changes in measurement readings. This is not a malfunction.

To avoid poor connections, be sure to push the sensor connector securely into the jack.

[

Handling the temperature/humidity sensor

]

The temperature

humidity sensor should be changed after a period of about one year. After removing the sensor from its package, please change the temperature

humidity sensor after one year’s usage.

During use, the temperature

humidity sensor will accumulate impurities

(

dirt) on the surface of the sensor causing the sensor's accuracy and

sensitivity to decrease. If the sensor is being used in a bad environment

(

smoky or dusty places

)

it may be necessary to change the sensor sooner.

When the temperature/humidity sensor is not being used, please place it in the attached vinyl bag with the drying agent included and store it in a cool dark place with a temperature of between 5 to 25

℃

and a humidity of below

30％RH.

Attached to the temperature

humidity sensor are two stickers: a wetness detection sticker and a temperature detection sticker. If either of the sticker shows ab nor mality, yo u should change the old sensor with a new on e immediately.
