1 ABOUT YOUR GAUGE

The Elcometer 319 Dewpoint Meter is a handheld gauge for fast and accurate

measurement of surface temperature, air temperature and relative humidity. From

these measured values, your gauge then calculates dewpoint temperature, delta

temperature, wet bulb temperature, dry bulb temperature and specific humidity.

During the application of a coating to a substrate the presence of moisture in the

environment or on the substrate can cause a poor quality finish with problems such

as weak adhesion of the coating, and premature corrosion of the substrate. This

gauge helps to avoid such problems by providing the user with an indication of the

moisture content of the surrounding micro climate.

The gauge is available in two versions; Standard and Top. This manual describes

the operation of both versions of the gauge; any differences between the function

of the two versions are highlighted in the text as [T] or [S]. Both gauges have a

similar appearance; if you are unsure which gauge you are using, see page 8.

3 GETTING STARTED

3.1 POWER SUPPLY

Your gauge is powered by batteries or by a USB cable when it is connected

to a computer. An icon in the top right of the display indicates which power

supply is being used / .

Attention: The USB power supply cannot be used to charge batteries.

Note: The USB cable is supplied with the Top gauge only and it can be used

to power the gauge and also for transfer of data - see page 28. Users of the

Standard gauge can purchase a USB cable (see page 33) but its use is

limited only to supplying power to the gauge and creating a user screen (see

page 30).

The battery power supply symbol indicates the condition of the batteries;

the more segments displayed, the better the condition of the batteries.

When no segments are displayed it is not advisable to use the gauge for

interval logging [T] over long periods of time. If the batteries are replaced

during interval logging, the gauge may show Please Wait whilst it re-

calculates the batch statistics.

When the batteries are nearly depleted, the battery power supply symbol

starts blinking and the gauge emits short beeps every 10 seconds to indicate

that the batteries have to be changed.

FITTING BATTERIES

The batteries are located under the cover at the rear of the gauge. To replace the batteries, remove the

retaining screw and the cover and fit high quality alkaline dry batteries (2x AA / LR6) taking care to ensure

correct battery polarity. Refit the cover and tighten the retaining screw when finished.

Reading data in the memory is not affected by removal of the batteries, however it is recommended that

you check the time and data if the batteries are removed for some time.

Alkaline batteries must be disposed of carefully to avoid environmental contamination. Please consult your

local Environmental Authority for information on disposal in your region. Do not dispose of any battery in fire.

MAXIMISING BATTERY LIFE

There are various measures you can take to help maximise battery life:

• Use Auto Switch Off - see page 25

• Reduce the Backlight Brightness- see page 26

• Reduce the Backlight Timeout - see page 26

• Switch off the Backlight - see page 22

• If Bluetooth [T] is not being used, switch it off - see page 24

• During interval logging [T], press and hold the on/off key or use Auto Switch Off. The gauge will appear

to switch off, but in fact it will continue to log reading data into batch memory at the set logging interval.

When the gauge is next switched on the batch will reopen.

3.2 THE CONTROLS

Your gauge is controlled by five keys:

• Upper row of four keys: These are Softkeys whose function changes

according to the text and symbols on the bottom row of the display.

• Lower single key: Press to switch the gauge on; press and hold to switch

off (also see “Auto Switch Off” on page 25).

3.3 THE RED AND GREEN LIGHTS

The red and green lights above the display illuminate briefly when the gauge is switched on. The green light

flashes once when a reading is saved into rolling memory or into batch memory [T]. Alternatively, the red

light flashes if a reading is saved into rolling memory or batch memory [T] which exceeds a limit.

3.4 WHICH GAUGE AM I USING?

Press Menu>About>Gauge Information; gauge type (Standard/Top) is shown under Model or refer to the

part number on the reverse of the gauge, ‘S’ signifies Standard, ‘T’ signifies Top.
