Measuring Temperatures - VOLTCRAFT VC870 Bedienungsanleitung

i) Measuring Temperatures
During temperature measurement, only the temperature sensor must be subject to
the the temperature to be measured. The meter working temperature must not be
undercut or exceeded. Otherwise, there may be measuring errors.
The contact temperature sensor must only be used at voltage-free surfaces.
Any K-type thermo sensor may be used for measuring tempe-
ratures. The temperature can be displayed in °C or °F. Optio-
nal sensors can be used for the complete measuring range
(-40 to +400 °C).
For measuring temperatures, proceed as follows:
- Turn the DMM on and select measuring range "°C".
Press "SELECT" button to switch measurement func-
tions. The temperature measurement symbols now appe-
ar in the display. Pressing this button again takes you to
the first measuring function etc.
- Plug the optional thermo sensor into the V measuring
jack (7) in the right polarity with the plus pole and into the
COM measuring jack (8) with the minus pole. If neces-
sary use suitable K type plugs.
- The main display indicates the temperature value in °C,
the small display in °F.
- When "OL" is displayed the measuring range has been
exceeded.
- After measuring, remove the sensor and turn off the DMM.
When the measuring input is bridged (sockets: °C – COM) the DMM device tempera-
ture is indicated. Due to the closed casing, the temperature is only slowly adapted to
the ambience temperature.
