HH501DK
Digital Thermometer
INTRODUCTION
This instrument is a portable 3½ digit, compact-sized digital thermometer
designed to use external K-type thermocouple as temperature sensor. Tem-
perature indication follows Reference Temperature/Voltage Tables (N.I.S.T.
Monograph 175 Revised to ITS-90) for K-type thermocouples.
SAFETY INFORMATION
Itisrecommendedthatyoureadthesafetyandoperationinstructionsbefore
using the thermometer.
WARNING
To avoid electrical shock, do not use this instrument when voltages
at the measurement surface exceed 24V AC or DC.
WARNING
To avoid damage or burns, do not make temperature
measurement in microwave ovens.
CAUTION
Repeated sharp flexing can break the thermocouple leads. To prolong
lead life, avoid sharp bends in the leads, especially near the connector.
The
symbol on the instrument indicates that the operator must refer to an
explanation in this manual.

To change the temperature scale, press the "°C" or "°F"key.
Selecting the Display Resolution
The thermometer allows two choices of resolution:
High resolution: 0.1°C or 0.1°F
Low resolution: 1.0°C or 1.0°F
To select the alternate display resolution, press the corresponding "0.1°/1°"
key.
HOLD Mode
Press " HOLD" button to toggle in and out of Hold mode, In the Hold mode, the
" H " annunciator is displayed. (The Hold mode may be exited when changing
function.)
Display Back-Light
Pressing the " " key to toggle turn on or turn off the Back-Light.

T1,T2,T3,T4, T1-T2,T1-T3,T1-T4 Temperature Measurement
1. The function switch indicates which input is selected for display; T1
thermocouple, T2 thermocouple,T3 thermocoupleor, T4 thermocouple or
the difference between the two thermocouples (T1-T2, T1-T3, T1-T4).
2. Connect a type k thermocouple to the jack on the instrument. Place the
probe or thermocouple tip on or in the material to be measured and take the
temperature reading directly from the display.

MAINTENANCE
WARNING
To avoid possible electrical shock, disconnect the thermocouple
connectors from the thermometer before removing the cover.
Battery Replacement
Power is supplied by a 9 volt "transistor" battery. (NEDA 1604, IEC 6F22). The

HH501DK CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
Note: The following calibration procedure should perform only by qualified technicians
who have access to the items as following.
Equipment: The class of calibrator had better 10 times greater than the measured meter.
Temperature Calibration
Insert the K type thermocouple to the female connector, and the other side of this
probe to Temperature Calibrator and connect output to the voltage meter. We
must allow the K type to stabilize for at least 1 minute and make sure “+” and “-“
polarity is right position.
1. Set the range to the T1/0.1°C, and then apply 0°C to T1 input (T2 input open)
adjust R3 and R4 (fine adj.) until LCD reading reads 0.0±0.1°C.
2. Set the range to the T2/0.1°C, and then Apply 0°C to T2 input (T1 input open)
adjust R1 and R2 (fine adj.) until LCD reading reads 0.0±0.1°C.
3. Set the range to the T1/0.1°F, and then apply 0°F to T1 input (T2 input open)
adjust R6 until LCD reading reads 0.0±0.1°F.
4. Set the range to the T1/0.1°F, and then apply 165°F to T1 input (T2 input
open) adjust R7 until LCD reading reads 165.0±0.1°F.
5. Set the range to the T1/1°F, and then apply 1832°F to T1 input (T2 input
open) adjust R5 until LCD reading reads 1832±1°F.
6. Set the range to the T1/1°C, and then apply 1000°C to T1 input (T2 input
open) adjust R8 until LCD reading reads 1000±0°C.
