Instrument Warranty and User Guide
RETURN / REPLACEMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Because the individual probes and thermocouple work in tandem to form a
calibrated system, parts cannot be replaced individually.
REPAIR RETURN
If damaged, all probes and thermocouples must be returned together for repair
and recalibration. Limited Warranty terms apply.
SERVICE RETURN
For annual recalibration service and re-issue of certification, return all probes
and thermocouples to the address below.

CALIBRATION PROCESS
93025 TROUBLESHOOTING
SysCal™ CALIBRATION PROCESS
TROUBLESHOOTING
The Syscal calibration process was designed to monitor the accuracy of a previously
installed TempTrak® transmitter and its modified* Solid Simulator Probe. This process will
be used with the transmitter and solid simulator probe connected, measured as a unit, and
in place within the use environment.
1) Unit Does Not Turn On: Batteries are installed
incorrectly or dead. Check batteries are installed
according to picture on rear label. Replace batteries.
Calibration of the transmitter and solid simulator is achieved by comparing the documented
readings from the transmitter and solid simulator with the reading from the SysCal™
35025 Thermocouple and the 50219-K Probe. This reading is referred to as the reference
standard.
The Total System Accuracy (TSA) of SysCal is ±0.5°F (±0.3°C). A certificate of calibration
from an ISO 17025 accredited laboratory is also supplied. This accuracy will provide a Test
Uncertainty Ratio (TUR) of 4:1 when used as the reference standard for the TempTrak
transmitter and Solid Product Simulator.
*The modified solid simulator incorporates a secondary hole in the opposite end from where the thermistor sensor is inserted
into the solid simulator. This secondary hole is used to place an insertion probe in the vicinity of the simulator’s thermistor
sensor.

(1) Hard carrying case
(48) Calibration labels

2) Display Shows “Prob”: Probe is broken (Open
thermocouple. See “Test for Broken Probe”
below).
3) Test for Broken Probe: Pull the probe connector out
partially to expose the blade contacts. Place a metal
paper clip across connector blades to short contacts.
If instrument displays temperature, the probe is
broken. Replace Probe.
4) Battery Icon Appears on Display: Low battery.
Replace batteries.
5) Display Shows “bAtt” and Instrument Shuts Off:
Replace batteries.
6) Display Shows “LO” or “HI”: Temperature measured
is outside measurement range of instrument.

Probe replacement is no longer necessary as long as the calibration process yields an
accuracy within the stated range, and the calibration process is performed within the actual
in-use environment. If any calibration results demonstrate out of tolerance conditions for
a TempTrak® transmitter or probe, the equipment will need to be replaced (refer to current
price schedule). For further information contact your local TempTrak sales representative.
PROBE CONNECTORS LOCATED INSIDE COLD ENVIRONMENTS
It is recommended that the probe connector is located outside of any cold environments to
avoid any inaccuracies.
If the probe cord is not long enough to fit outside of the cooler or freezer, it can be left in that
environment during the wait time of 3 to 5 minutes. However, if the probe connector is exposed
to these cold environments, and then plugged into the thermocouple instrument, it needs to
acclimate for approximately 4 minutes. This will compensate for the temperature difference
between the probe connector and the instrument to avoid inaccurate readings.
To avoid taking innaccurate readings, do not leave the thermocouple instrument in these
environments longer than the recommended times explained above.

93025 SYSCAL SYSTEM SPECIFICATIONS
SYSTEM COMPONENTS:
(1) 35025 thermocouple and (2) 50219-K probes
CALIBRATION INSTRUCTIONS
1 Insert the SysCal probe into the calibration port
of the solid simulator.
4 Immediately after sending the reading from the
transmitter, take note of the temperature displayed
on the thermocouple. Record this reading in your
data log sheet. Use this as your reference standard.
SYSTEM RANGE:
-25°F to 180°F (-32°C to 82°C).
SYSTEM ACCURACY:
±0.5°F (±0.3°C) when probe/instrument are calibrated
together and ambient temperature is between 68°F and
86°F (20°C and 30°C).
AMBIENT TEMPERATURE RANGE:
Operating: 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C)
The reading from the TempTrak
transmitter is compared to the
reference standard recorded by
the SysCal thermocouple. If that
reading is within ±2.0ºF (±1.1ºC), the
transmitter and solid simulator probe
are considered to be calibrated
within the stated accuracy.
2 Secure probe by looping the elastic band over
the top of the solid simulator.
AMBIENT ACCURACY:
At ambient temperatures between 32°F to 68°F (0°C to
20°C) and 86°F to 122°F (30°C to 50°C), add ±0.1° error
per °F or °C deviation from 68°F and 86°F (20°C and
30°C).
RESOLUTION:
0.1° / 1° user selectable
DISPLAY:
LCD with 0.5” (13 mm) digit height
BATTERY TYPE:
(2) 1.5V (AAA) batteries (ANSI/NEDA-24F, IEC-R03)
BATTERY LIFE:
1800 hours typical
LOW BATTERY:
Indicated by battery icon on display. When battery is fully
depleted “batt” appears on display and unit will shut off
and not operate.
STORAGE:
-13°F to 167°F (-25°C to 75°C) (battery removed)
COMPLIANCE/REGULATORY:
Calibrated in an ISO17025 accredited lab, CE certified,
NSF listed, WEEE marked, Rohs compliant.
Close the door to the monitoring area to minimize
temperature fluctuations. To ensure an accurate
reading between the probe and the solid simulator,
allow them to stabilize for 3 to 5 minutes before
recording a temperature.
5 Seal the calibration port on the solid simulator probe
by placing a blank label (supplied) over the hole.
6 A new calibration label (supplied) is dated and signed
by the technician, and placed on the housing
of the TempTrak transmitter (802.11 Wi-Fi shown).
TRACEABILITY:
We certify that this instrument has been calibrated to
temperature and/or electrical standards traceable to the
U.S. Department of Commerce National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST).
3 A TempTrak reading transmission is initiated
by pressing the transmit button* on the
TempTrak transmitter (900 MHz shown).
6
*Depending on the transmitter type, this button may be
accessible from the inside (as above) or from the outside.
