TRACEABLE Jumbo Calibrated Digital Fridge/Freezer Thermometer

1. Introducció

The TRACEABLE Jumbo Calibrated Digital Fridge/Freezer Thermometer (Model AO-94460-73) is designed for precise temperature monitoring in refrigerators, freezers, water baths, heating blocks, and incubators. This device simultaneously displays current, minimum, and maximum temperatures, offering a comprehensive overview of environmental conditions. Its built-in memory stores temperature data, and programmable alarms provide alerts for critical temperature deviations.

Característiques principals:

• Simultaneous display of current, minimum, and maximum temperatures.
• Built-in memory for tracking temperature conditions over time.
• Precise high and low temperature alarms, adjustable in 1° increments.
• Submersible temperature probe with a 10-ft (3-m) micro-cable.
• Multiple mounting options: hook-and-loop strips, wall-mount slots, or flip-open stand.
• NIST-traceable calibration certificate included.

3. Configuració

3.1. Instal·lació de la bateria

1. Localitzeu el compartiment de la bateria a la part posterior de la unitat.
2. Traieu la tapa del compartiment de la bateria.
3. Insert the supplied AAA alkaline battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Col·loqueu la coberta del compartiment de la bateria amb seguretat.

3.2. Col·locació de la sonda

The bottle probe is designed to buffer rapid temperature changes, providing a more stable and accurate reading of the stored contents. The 10-ft (3-m) micro-cable allows the probe to be placed inside the monitored environment while the main unit remains outside.

• Place the bottle probe inside the refrigerator, freezer, or other environment where temperature monitoring is required. Ensure the probe is positioned to accurately reflect the temperature of the items being stored.
• The micro-cable is thin enough to allow refrigerator or freezer doors to close without damaging the cable or compromising the seal.

3.3. Muntatge de la unitat principal

The main thermometer unit can be mounted in several ways:

• Hook-and-Loop Strips: Attach the adhesive-backed hook-and-loop strips to the back of the unit and a clean, flat surface (e.g., side of a refrigerator, wall).
• Magnetic Strips: Use the magnetic strips for attachment to metallic surfaces.
• Wall-Mount Slots: Utilize the integrated slots on the back of the unit to hang it on screws or hooks.
• Flip-Open Stand: For benchtop use, extend the integrated stand on the back of the unit.

4. Instruccions de funcionament

4.1. Encendre/apagar

The unit powers on automatically upon battery installation. There is no dedicated power button. To turn off, remove the battery.

4.2. Lectura de temperatures

The large LCD display shows three temperature readings simultaneously:

• Temperatura actual: The real-time temperature measured by the probe.
• Temperatura mínima (MÍN): La temperatura més baixa registrada des de l'últim reinici.
• Temperatura màxima (MÀX): La temperatura més alta registrada des de l'últim reinici.

4.3. Canvi d'unitats de temperatura (°F/°C)

Premeu el botó °F/°C button (if available, or a similar labeled button) to toggle between Fahrenheit and Celsius temperature scales.

4.4. Viewing and Clearing Min/Max Memory

The thermometer automatically records the minimum and maximum temperatures reached since the last memory reset. These values are continuously displayed.

• To clear the MIN/MAX memory and begin a new recording cycle, press the CLAR button. The display will show the current temperature for MIN and MAX until new minimum and maximum values are recorded.

4.5. Configuració d'alarmes

The thermometer features programmable high and low temperature alarms. An alarm will sound when the temperature exceeds the high set point or falls below the low set point. The alarm continues to sound even if the temperature returns to the non-alarm range until acknowledged.

1. Premeu el botó SET botó per entrar al mode de configuració d'alarma.
2. Utilitza el UP i ABAIX arrow buttons to adjust the desired high temperature alarm limit.
3. Premeu SET again to confirm the high limit and proceed to set the low temperature alarm limit.
4. Utilitza el UP i ABAIX arrow buttons to adjust the desired low temperature alarm limit.
5. Premeu SET a third time to exit alarm setting mode and save the settings.
6. To enable or disable the alarm, press the ALARMA ON / OFF button. An alarm icon will typically appear on the display when the alarm is active.
7. To silence a sounding alarm, press any button. The alarm will reactivate if the temperature remains outside the set limits.

5. Manteniment

5.1. Neteja

Regular cleaning helps maintain the accuracy and longevity of your thermometer.

• Wipe the main unit and probe with a damp cloth. A mild soap solution can be used if necessary.
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these may damage the plastic casing o pantalla.
• Ensure the main unit does not get wet, as it is not waterproof. The probe is submersible.

5.2. Substitució de la bateria

When the display becomes dim or the unit stops functioning, it is time to replace the battery. Refer to Section 3.1 for battery installation instructions.

5.3. Probe Care
