fe: OMEGA An QMEGA Technologies Company A12P, A24P, A36P, A48P, A60P, A72P A12PF, A24PF, A36PF, A48PF, A6OPF, A72PF Compost Thermometers Operator's Manual M1543/0992 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The OMEGA Compost Thermometer is ideally suited for monitoring interior temperatures of compost piles and windrows. The clear, easy-to-read dial, with the pointer directly driven by the sensitive bimetal helix in the bottom of the stem, gives an accurate reading every time. These hardy thermometers are used by composters everywhere for such applications as waste disposal, recycling, and mushroom farming. FEATURES 1/4" Diameter Stem or Sturdier 5/16" Diameter Stem Rugged, All Stainless Steel Construction Hermetically Sealed, Will Not Fog Easy-to-Read 3" Diameter Dial Exterior Reset Adjustment Available in °F or °C Scales Stem Lengths up to 72" Long OPERATION WARNING The pointed stem of the thermometer is very sharp. Be careful when handling. Avoid bending the stem. A bent stem renders the instrument inoperable and non-repairabie. OMEGA recommends keeping the thermometer stem in the PVC sheath when not in use. When inserting the thermometer into a semi-solid such as compost, grasp the shaft about 6" back from the point, and push (DO NOT push the head of the thermometer - push on the stem only). Once the stem goes in 6", grasp the stem 6" farther back, and push again. Repeat until the stem is completely inserted; this method will avoid bending the stem. The bimetal coil which senses temperature is in the bottom two inches of the stem, so if the stem is immersed 36" into a medium, it will indicate the temperature of the medium at a depth of 34" - 36". For stems over 36", to avoid bending the stem, OMEGA recommends inserting the thermometer with its sheath on, through a pre-cored hole, and waiting three minutes before reading. Alternatively, you can remove the last three inches of sheath, to expose the end of the stem, and wait only 45 seconds. Once the thermometer is inserted in the pile, wait at least 45 seconds before reading the temperature. When you are finished using the thermometer, return it to its protective sheath.
