Installation and commissioning of DiTemp

 Select the installation location in accordance with the technical data.
When measuring high media temperatures it is possible that the ambient temperature at
the thermometer housing will exceed the permissible maximum value (+60 °C). This may
damage the measuring instrument. We recommend the use of our DiTemp with remote
cable when measuring media temperatures greater than 200 °C.
 The DiTemp functions irrespective of its installation position. Install the thermometer
with a minimum sensor immersion depth of 20 mm in the medium to be measured.
 The LCD segment has been optimised to a so-called 6 o'clock viewing angle. The best dis-
play contrast is achieved if the viewing direction is from the front and below the normal.
After commissioning, the instrument at first carries out a self-test. The operability of the
temperature sensor is simultaneously checked. The first valid measurement value is availa-
ble after approx. 6 s.
Measurement cycle:
The measurement cycle of the instrument is 3 s. The flashing symbol "
functioning of the instrument and availability of a new measurement value.
Reference measurement:
The device automatically carries out an internal alignment at a reference resistor after each
measurement. This ensures constant accuracy of the measured value.
