This image displays the WIKA TI.80 Solar Digital Thermometer. It features a round, stainless steel casing with a digital LCD screen showing a temperature reading of 74.5°F. Below the screen is a black solar panel, and the text 'SOLAR POWERED -50/300°F' is visible. A stem extends from the back of the unit.

5. Installation et configuration

Suivez ces étapes pour une installation correcte :

1. Sélectionnez l'emplacement de montage : Choose a location that allows the solar panel to receive at least 35 lux of ambient light. Avoid direct sunlight if it could lead to overheating beyond the specified operating limits of the display.
2. Préparer le point de connexion : Ensure the process connection point is clean and compatible with a 1/2 inch NPT thread.
3. Installer le thermomètre : Thread the thermometer's 1/2 inch NPT connection into the prepared port. Use appropriate sealing tape or compound to ensure a leak-free connection. Tighten securely, but do not overtighten to avoid damaging the connection or the thermometer casing.
4. Verify Stem Immersion: Ensure the stem is adequately immersed in the medium to be measured for accurate readings. The thermistor sensor is located at the tip of the stem.
5. Mise sous tension initiale : Once installed and exposed to sufficient light, the thermometer will power on automatically and begin displaying temperature readings within a few seconds.

6. Fonctionnement

The WIKA TI.80 is designed for straightforward operation:

• Lecture de l'affichage : The current temperature will be shown on the digital LCD screen. The unit of measurement (°F or °C) will be indicated next to the numerical value.
• Temperature Updates: The display updates approximately every 15 seconds, providing near real-time temperature monitoring.
• Solar Power Indicator: The thermometer operates continuously as long as sufficient light (35 lux or more) is available to the solar cell. No battery replacement is required under normal operating conditions.

7. Entretien

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your thermometer:

• Nettoyage: Wipe the display and solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the display or casing.
• Solar Cell Care: Ensure the solar panel remains clean and unobstructed to guarantee continuous power supply.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the thermometer for any signs of physical damage, corrosion, or loose connections. Address any issues promptly.
• Instructions d'entretien du produit : The manufacturer recommends wiping clean for general product care.

8. Dépannage

If you encounter issues with your WIKA TI.80 thermometer, consider the following:

• Pas d'affichage :
  • Check if the solar panel is receiving adequate light (at least 35 lux). Move the thermometer to a brighter location if necessary.
  • Assurez-vous que le panneau solaire est propre et exempt d'obstructions.
• Lectures inexactes :
  • Verify that the stem is fully immersed in the medium being measured.
  • Confirm that the thermometer is operating within its specified temperature range.
  • Ensure the stem is not bent or damaged.
• Affichage intermittent : This may indicate insufficient or fluctuating light conditions for the solar cell.

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