1.1 Introduction
The Portable Digital Thermometer provides a rapid and reliable means of checking solution temperatures
in x-ray film processors. It features a detachable temperature-sensing probe with a 3-foot coiled cord,
and an LCD digital display. When the tip of the immersion probe is placed in a solution, accurate
temperature readings appear within seconds. The digital display eliminates the possibility of error that
can result from the misreading of stem-type dial thermometers. Detachable immersion probes are time-
savers for the busy x-ray department that has several film processors. A permanently positioned probe
eliminates the need for removing the cover of the processor. Simply leave one probe in each processor
and plug it into the instrument. The use of multiple probes, each remaining in a specific tank, also
eliminates possible cross-contamination of chemicals from tank to tank. When mounting the probe
permanently to the processor, the probe tip should be positioned so it is approximately 2” beneath the
liquid’s surface. Make sure the probe housing is out of the solution.
This battery-operated, shock-resistant read-out unit has solid-state electronics and needs no adjustments
to maintain high accuracy. Calibration is traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology.
This instrument comes with a high-impact plastic storage case with room for additional probes.
