around the instrument. Overhead clearance of 1 meter (3 ft) is required. DO NOT
place instrument under any structure.
Component lifetime can be shortened by continuous high temperature operation.
DO NOT use uids to clean out the well. Fluids could leak into electronics and dam-
age the instrument.
Never introduce any foreign material into the probe hole of the insert. Fluids, etc. can
leak into the instrument causing damage.
Unless recalibrating the instrument DO NOT change the values of the calibration con-
stants from the factory set values. The correct setting of these parameters is important
to the safety and proper operation of the block.
DO NOT allow the probe sheath or inserts to drop into the well. This type of action
can cause a shock to the sensor and affect the calibration.
The instrument and any thermometer probes used with it are sensitive instruments that
can be easily damaged. Always handle these devices with care. DO NOT allow them
to be dropped, struck, stressed, or overheated.
DO NOT operate this instrument in an excessively wet, oily, dusty, or dirty environ-
ment. Always keep the well and inserts clean and clear of foreign material.
The Field Temperature Block is a precision instrument. Although it has been designed
for optimum durability and trouble free operation, it must be handled with care. Al-
ways carry the instrument in an upright position to prevent the inserts from dropping
out. The convenient handle allows for hand carrying the instrument.
If a mains supply power uctuation occurs, immediately turn off the instrument.
Power bumps from brown-outs could damage the instrument. Wait until the power has
stabilized before re-energizing the instrument.
The probe and the block may expand at different rates. Allow for probe expansion
inside the well as the block heats. Otherwise, the probe may become stuck in the well.
Most probes have handle temperature limits. If the probe handle limits are exceeded,
the probe may be permanently damaged. Due to a unique Air Flow Design, Field Tem-
perature Blocks protect the probe handle temperature and provide a safer temperature
handle for the user.
1.5 CE Comments
1.5.1 EMC Directive
Beamex equipment has been tested to meet the European Electromagnetic Compatibil-
ity Directive (EMC Directive, 89/336/EEC). The Declaration of Conformity for your
instrument lists the specic standards to which the instrument was tested.
