Indledning
Thank you for choosing the TFA Galileo Thermometer. This elegant instrument utilizes the principle of buoyancy to indicate temperature, making it both a functional thermometer and a decorative piece. Please read this manual carefully to ensure proper setup, operation, and maintenance of your thermometer.
Produkt overview
The TFA Galileo Thermometer consists of a sealed glass cylinder filled with a clear liquid, typically water or oil, and several glass spheres of varying densities. Each sphere has a small metal tag indicating a specific temperature. As the ambient temperature changes, the density of the liquid inside the cylinder changes, causing the spheres to rise or fall.

Nøglefunktioner:
- Glaskonstruktion: Holdbar og æstetisk behageligasing.
- Temperaturområde: 18 ° C til 26 ° C (64 ° F til 79 ° F).
- Graduering: 2°C increments.
- Colored Spheres: Five distinct colored spheres with golden temperature tags.
- Dimensioner: Approximately 8 cm (L) x 8 cm (W) x 34 cm (H).
Opsætning
- Udpakning: Tag forsigtigt termometret ud af emballagen. Undersøg det for tegn på skader.
- Placering: Place the thermometer on a stable, flat surface away from direct sunlight, heat sources (like radiators or vents), and drafts. Extreme temperature fluctuations can affect accuracy and potentially damage the unit.
- Optimalt miljø: For best performance, place the thermometer in a room with a relatively stable ambient temperature within its operating range.
Note: The thermometer is designed for indoor use only. Do not expose it to freezing temperatures, as this can cause the liquid to expand and crack the glass.
Betjeningsvejledning
The Galileo Thermometer operates automatically based on the principle of liquid density changing with temperature. No manual adjustments are required.
Aflæsning af temperatur:
To read the current temperature, observe the spheres floating within the liquid. The lowest floating sphere in the top group indicates the current temperature. If all spheres are at the bottom, the temperature is below the lowest marked sphere. If all spheres are at the top, the temperature is above the highest marked sphere.
- Exampdet: If spheres marked 18°C, 20°C, and 22°C are floating at the top, and spheres marked 24°C and 26°C have sunk to the bottom, the current temperature is 22°C.
The thermometer provides an approximate temperature reading within its specified range. It is not intended for precision measurements.
Opretholdelse
- Rensning: To clean the glass, gently wipe it with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the glass or the internal components.
- Håndtering: Handle the thermometer with care. It is made of glass and can break if dropped or subjected to strong impacts.
- Opbevaring: If storing the thermometer, ensure it is in a stable, upright position in a temperature-controlled environment to prevent damage.
Fejlfinding
| Problem | Mulig årsag | Løsning |
|---|---|---|
| All spheres at the bottom. | Rumtemperaturen er under 18°C. | Move the thermometer to a warmer location. |
| All spheres at the top. | Rumtemperaturen er over 26°C. | Move the thermometer to a cooler location. |
| Spheres not moving or stuck. | Sudden temperature change or physical impact. | Allow time for the thermometer to stabilize. Gently tap the base to dislodge any stuck spheres. If the glass is cracked, the unit is damaged and cannot be repaired. |
| Liquid appears cloudy or discolored. | Contamination or internal damage. | This indicates internal damage. The unit cannot be repaired and should be replaced. |
