temp-gard basic Data Logger
Store in a dust free environment. Remove batteries when storing for more than two to
three weeks.
Return to BYK-Gardner annually for calibration.
Thermocouple Probes
General
Lifting or removing the probes by the cables will damage the cables and connectors.
Examine cables, and replace any probes found to have damaged insulation.
Mineral Insulated Thermocouple Probes
The thermal cycling the probes experience causes the MI cable to age, and eventually to
become brittle. Handle them with care ensuring the minimum bend radius is greater than
25 mm.
Operating the temp-gard basic System
Please observe the safety information on page 3.
!
Attention
If the ambient temperature is above +40 °C, the temp-gard basic Instrument must be
used in the thermal barrier. The maximum duration at an ambient temperature of +250 °C
is 40 minutes. If the temp-gard basic system is used with the standard heat barrier, a
maximum temperature of +300 °C must not be exceeded.
Position of Thermocouple Probes
Type and positon of the probes influence the product temperature. The product or object
to be measured determines the type and size (material mass) of the probes used.
Depending on the thickness and magnetic properties of the object, either magnetic probes,
clamps or adhesive probes are used. The thermocouple probes are always plugged into
the temp-gard basic instrument from jack 1 to x.
