Setup 4.2
Place the calibrator on a flat surface with at least 6 inches of free space around the
instrument. Plug the power cord into a grounded mains outlet. Observe that the
nominal voltage corresponds to that indicated on the back of the calibrator.
Carefully insert the probe basket into the tank. Fill the tank with the appropriate fluid.
The set-point temperature and the number of and size of probes deter mine the fluid
level. Be sure to keep the fluid level an adequate distance below the top of the well
to prevent overflowing the fluid when the probes are in serted. For example, placing
200.20 oil at room temperature (25°C) into the bath and heating the unit to 200°C,
causes a 1-inch (2.54 cm) expansion of the fluid inside the well.
Keep the fluid level at least 0.64 cm (0.25 inches) below the top of the probe basket
at all times. With the probe (probes) in the tank fill the tank 3/4 full. Heat to the
maximum temperature of the fluid. Slowly fill the well to 1.3 cm (.5 inch) be low the
top of the probe basket at the maximum temperature of the fluid.
