Safety Information

Check for proper operation of the Product before taking it into a hazardous area. Should the Product not operate as expected do not take the Product into a hazardous area and return it to the manufacturer for inspection.

The Product is intended for installation only in locations providing adequate protection against the entry of solid foreign objects or water capable of impairing safety.

WCaution

To prevent possible damage to the Product or to equipment under test:

If the display message changes to “OL,” the range limit is exceeded and the Product must immediately be removed from the heat source to prevent damage.

Do not immerse the Probe beyond its maximum immersion depth. This may damage its internal electronics. See “Immersion Depth and Usage” later in this manual.

DO NOT drop or strike the Probe in any way. Mechanical shock damages the Probe internally and affects it calibration.

If the Product overheats or is exposed to sudden physical shock, examine it for damage that can cause a safety risk. If possible, compare the displayed temperature to a known reference before Product use. If not sure, send the Product to Fluke Corporation. Refer to “How to Contact Fluke”.

Substitution of components will impair suitability for hazardous locations.

ATEX Safety Information

This manual contains data and safety regulations that must be followed for safe, reliable use of the Product in hazardous areas under the detailed conditions. If you do not follow these instructions, personal injury or Product damage can occur. Violation of applicable legislation can also occur. Read the full manual before you use the Product. To make sure of safe Product operation, fully follow all instructions and warnings in the manual. If you are not sure (due to translation and/or printing errors), refer to the English manual.

An “Ex-hazardous area,” as used in this manual, refers to an area made hazardous by the possible presence of flammable or explosive vapors. These areas are also referred to as “hazardous locations.”
