Model TP-7

---

Petroleum & Bulk Liquid Gauging Thermometer

The TP-7 was developed to improve on the basic attributes of the original reel-case design of the TP-3. Other than the shape of the case, the TP-7 is a completely different instrument designed to provide high reliability, low maintenance, an extended temperature range, and high accuracy. This was achieved by using RTD temperature sensors, low power programmable electronics, and improved packaging. Other attributes include the stretch cord grounding assembly and reel locking mechanism.

To endure the environment, the TP-7 is manufactured of materials which are both immune to petrochemicals and are nonsparking. The enclosure is made of high impact plastic which dissipates static electricity and has proven to be unaffected by any petrochemical, caustic or acid. As with all ThermoProbe instruments, the probe assembly is constructed with very flexible static-dissapating teflon cable and stainless steel sensor components. To ensure longevity of the user interface, the faceplate is fabricated of engraved aluminum plate, a scratch resistant window and a O-Ring sealed switch.

Operational Attributes:
Easily replaceable 9V Battery provides an average of 50 hours operation. If probe assembly replacement is necessary, the terminals allow simple connection of the wires. Circuit logic automatically indicates low battery condition, shows readout integrity before each operation, automatically shuts off after two minutes and displays error codes for failure determination. The low power backlight for night operation is photo sensor controlled for convenience and battery conservation. Celsius of Fahrenheit units with C/F indication can be easily chosen by an internal selector.
