3. Configuració

Follow these steps to properly connect your TL2300 extension cable with a K-Type thermocouple sensor and a compatible measuring device.

1. Identificació de connectors: The TL2300 cable has a male flat pin connector and a female flat socket connector. K-Type connectors are typically yellow.
2. Connecta el sensor: Plug the male flat pin connector of your K-Type thermocouple sensor into the female flat socket connector of the TL2300 extension cable. Ensure a firm connection.
3. Connecta't al dispositiu: Plug the male flat pin connector of the TL2300 extension cable into the K-Type input port of your compatible temperature measuring device (e.g., thermometer, datalogger). Observe polarity: the wider pin/socket typically corresponds to the positive (+) terminal, and the narrower pin/socket to the negative (-) terminal. K-Type connectors are designed to prevent incorrect polarity connection, but always verify.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

Once the TL2300 extension cable is correctly connected between your K-Type thermocouple sensor and measuring device, operation is straightforward.

1. Encès: Turn on your temperature measuring device.
2. Verifica la connexió: Ensure the device recognizes the connected thermocouple and displays a temperature reading. If the reading is erratic or shows an error, check all connections.
3. Prendre mesures: Position your K-Type thermocouple sensor at the desired measurement point. The extension cable allows for greater flexibility in sensor placement.
4. Observeu les lectures: Monitor the temperature readings on your device. The TL2300 cable is designed to transmit the thermocouple signal accurately over its length.

Consideracions importants:

• Avoid bending the cable sharply, as this can damage the internal wiring.
• Do not exceed the maximum temperature rating of the cable insulation (300 °C).
• Ensure the environment where the cable is used is free from excessive moisture or corrosive substances unless the cable is specifically rated for such conditions.

5. Manteniment

Proper care and maintenance will help prolong the life and accuracy of your TL2300 extension cable.

• Neteja: Wipe the cable and connectors with a clean, dry cloth. If necessary, use a slightly damp cloth with mild soap, then dry thoroughly. Do not immerse the connectors in liquid.
• Emmagatzematge: Store the cable in a clean, dry environment, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Avoid coiling the cable too tightly.
• Inspecció: Periodically inspect the cable and connectors for any signs of wear, damage, or corrosion. Replace the cable if any damage is observed to prevent inaccurate readings or electrical hazards.
• Manipulació: Always handle the connectors by their plastic housing, not by pulling on the cable itself.

6. Solució De Problemes

If you encounter issues with your TL2300 extension cable, consider the following troubleshooting steps:

• No Reading or Erratic Readings:
  • Ensure all connections (sensor to cable, cable to device) are secure and fully inserted.
  • Verify that the thermocouple sensor itself is functioning correctly by testing it directly with the measuring device if possible.
  • Comproveu si hi ha algun dany visible al cable o als connectors.
• Lectura de temperatura incorrecta:
  • Confirm that both the sensor and the measuring device are set to the correct thermocouple type (K-Type).
  • Ensure there are no strong electromagnetic fields near the cable, which can interfere with the signal.
  • Verify that the cable is not exposed to temperatures exceeding its maximum rating, which could affect its insulation and signal integrity.

If problems persist after following these steps, contact PerfectPrime customer support for further assistance.
