1.4 Safety
The warning sign denotes a hazard. Such warning labels are fitted to
several places on the calibrators. It calls attention to a procedure which,
if not correctly performed or adhered to, could result in injury or loss of
life.Do not proceed beyonda warning sign untilthe indicated conditions
are fully understood and met. If you are in doubt please contact your
nearest Tek Know dealer.
Adry blockcalibrator isconstructedin sucha mannerthat itis impossible
to operate it without generating hot areas that can be of danger. It is
very important the operator in charge of the calibrator is aware of the
potential dangers and that he relays this information to any other future
user.
There are no operational switches or buttons inside the calibrator that is
neededduring operation. Opening thecalibrator during operation isvery
dangerous due to high temperatures and high voltages. The calibrator is
only to be opened by qualified service personnel.
After the calibrator has been operated it may be very hot. Do not turn
off the calibrator if the temperature is above 400°C. The correct
procedure is to set the setpoint to 50°C. and allow it to cool below
100°C.
If the calibrator switches itself down during operation, this can be due
to the internal safety trip switch. In these cases please contact your
dealer because a new fuse will have to be installed.

WARNING

8
User’s manual TC calibrators
Failure to ground the temperature calibrator properly can result in
personal injury. Use grounded ac power outlet.
Place the temperature calibrator on an even surface and make sure
that the air inlet for the fan is not blocked. Connect the power cable to
the temperature calibrator and press the Line switch on the bottom
panel to turn it on. The calibrator must not be covered. The calibrator
must be used in an environment with free space of 0.5 m. above and
0.1 m, open space on either side and with satisfactory ventilation or
temperature control.

2. INTRODUCTION
The TC calibrators user manuals are intended to be used with the Tek
Know portable calibrators TC125, TC150, TC400 and TC650. The
TC Calibrators are constructed with a dry temperature variable well,
withaspecial designed temperature controller. Adigital controller with
adedicated CPU gives theTCcalibrators flexible controllability.Digital
control provides for adaptive control of the temperature, which saves
the operator time, and assures high accuracy and easy setting of
temperatures. The local LCD displays both the set temperature and
reference temperature simultaneously.
The display of the TC400 & TC650 has a resolution of 0.1°C, however
the PID controller works with a resolution of 0.01°C.Effectively this
means that a better stability than stated in the specifications may be
obtained.In order to obtainthis, the calibration conditionsmust be ideal.
First and foremost, the ambient temperature must be kept stable state
and longer stabilisation time for the calibrator must be allowed. This is
to compensate for the temperature influence on the electronics. They
come in a dedicated instrument case with assessories such as cable
and inserts.
The communication port RS-232 comes as a standard feature, for use
with a computer in the calibration process.Tek Know provides optional
calibration software for temperature. The TC calibrators together with
the SC200 calibration software and SM300 Signal master will give you
an automatic calibration system.
