Inspection, maintenance, repairs, disassembly, adjustment and valve opening/closing should be carried out only by trained maintenance personnel. The precautions listed in this manual are designed to ensure safety and prevent equipment damage and personal injury. For situations that may occur as a result of erroneous handling, three different types of cautionary items are used to indicate the degree of urgency and the scale of potential damage and danger:
DANGER, WARNING and CAUTION. The three types of cautionary items above are very important for safety: be sure to observe all of them as they relate to use, maintenance and repair. Furthermore, TLV accepts no responsibility for any accidents or damage occurring as a result of failure to observe these precautions. Symbols Indicates a DANGER, WARNING or CAUTION item. DANGER WARNING CAUTION Indicates an urgent situation which poses a threat of death or serious injury Indicates that there is a potential threat of death or serious injury Indicates that there is a possibility of injury or equipment /
product damage This precautionary symbol indicates an item or action that must not be used or performed MANDATORY This precautionary symbol indicates an action or precaution that MUST be performed or observed PROHIBITED 2.1 TM6 Precautions DANGER PROHIBITED Do not use the carrying strap or earphones if there is any possibility of entanglement with rotating machinery. Operating the unit with the strap or earphone cord hanging loosely could lead to accidents resulting in serious injury caused by their becoming caught in rotating machinery. TM6 Precautions continued on next page. RN070405A_TM6Manual_01E.doc 3 PROHIBITED PROHIBITED MANDATORY PROHIBITED PROHIBITED PROHIBITED PROHIBITED PROHIBITED WARNING Do not disassemble or modify. Failure to observe this precaution could result in injury, electrical shock, ignition or fire. Do not operate the buttons or stare at the screen while walking. Failure to observe these precautions could lead to accidents such as tripping or collisions. Be attentive to the background noises in the surrounding area. When wearing the earphones, it becomes difficult to hear noises from the surrounding area. Operate the unit together with a person who is not wearing any earphones or take measures during operation to ensure advance awareness of potential dangers in the surrounding area. Do not turn the power ON while wearing the earphones. A sudden loud sound may be emitted, leading to hearing impairment or injury. After turning the power ON, check to see whether a loud sound is being output before putting on the earphones. Do not subject the unit to strong impact and do not throw it. Such handling could result in leakage of the battery fluid, excessive heat generation or injury. Do not place components in microwave ovens or high- pressure vessels, and do not place components in the vicinity of electromagnetic devices. Such handling could result in excessive heat generation, smoke, damage to circuitry, battery leakage, rupture or ignition. CAUTION Make sure no foreign matter gets inside the unit. Before use in areas with large amounts of metal powder or other fine foreign matter, take measure to prevent this foreign matter from getting inside the unit. The presence of such foreign matter could result in fire or unit failure. Do not let the unit become wet. If liquid gets inside the unit, it may result in excessive heat generation, electrical shock or unit failure. Be mindful of the location of use and the method of handling. RN070405A_TM6Manual_01E.doc 4 2.2 Battery Precautions DANGER PROHIBITED MANDATORY Do not apply heat to the batteries or throw them into a fire. Failure to observe this precaution could result in leakage of the battery fluid, excessive heat generation, rupture or ignition. If fluid leaks from the battery and gets in the eyes, flush it out. Do not rub the eyes, and after immediately flushing out thoroughly with clean water, see a doctor. PROHIBITED Do not cause the unit to become wet by immersing in water, salt water or liquid chemicals. Failure to observe this precaution could result in leakage of the battery fluid, excessive heat generation, rupture or ignition. Do not disassemble, modify, solder, etc. Failure to observe this precaution could result in leakage of the battery fluid, excessive heat generation, rupture or ignition. PROHIBITED Do not leave unit where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or in areas that will become very hot, such as interiors of cars, near heating equipment, etc. Failure to observe this precaution could result in leakage of the battery fluid, excessive heat generation, rupture or ignition. PROHIBITED MANDATORY MANDATORY MANDATORY PROHIBITED WARNING Cease use of the batteries immediately if the unit exhibits abnormal operation. If irregularities such as fluid leakage, an unusual smell, unusual heat generation, discoloration or deformation are noticed, cease use of the unit immediately. If use is continued under such conditions, excessive heat generation, ignition or rupture may result. If battery fluid leaks and comes into contact with the body, rinse immediately. There is danger of resultant damage to the skin. Immediately rinse any battery fluid off with clean water. CAUTION When not intending to use for extended periods of time, remove the battery pack from the unit and store in a dry, cool, dark location. Failure to observe this precaution could result in fluid leakage, rust, deterioration in performance or a reduction in service life. Do not dispose batteries with normal garbage. If at any time the batteries become unusable, observe your company regulations for proper disposal in accordance with local laws. If proper disposal is impossible, insulate the contact terminals by covering them with tape and return them to a TLV office. RN070405A_TM6Manual_01E.doc 3.

TM6 Preparation 4.1 Inserting Batteries 1) Turn the battery compartment lock counterclockwise to unlock. 2) Open the battery compartment and remove the battery pack (battery compartment cover). 3) Insert 2 batteries into the battery pack. Make sure the batteries have the correct orientation (polarity). 4) Reattach the battery pack and close the battery compartment. 5) Turn the battery compartment lock clockwise to lock. Turn Counter-
clockwise to Unlock Turn Clockwise to Lock Locked Position Unlocked Position Battery Pack CAUTION When not intending to use for an extended period of time, remove the batteries from the unit. Failure to do so could result in battery fluid leakage. 4.2 Turning the Power ON/OFF 1) Press [ENT] to turn TM6 on. The initial screen will appear on the display after 2 seconds 2) Press and hold the [ENT] key for 2 seconds to turn TM6 off. 4.3 Attaching and Removing the Cap 1) To remove the cap, twist 45 counterclockwise and take off. 2) To attach, place the cap over the probe and twist 45clockwise to close. RN070405A_TM6Manual_01E.doc 7 4.4 Connect the Wireless Communication The TM6 communicates with TrapManager-Pro using wireless communication. Before you inspect the trap, you have to connect with TrapManager-Pro and download the trap data to TM6. 1) The wireless communication is connected by operation of TrapManager-Pro. 2) When TM6 and TrapManager-Pro are connected, the icon is shown on the TM6 display. RN070405A_TM6Manual_01E.doc 8 5. Steam Trap Diagnosis 5.1 Receive Trap Data The Trap Data is downloaded to the TM6 by operating of TrapManager-Pro. After downloading is successful, TM6 displays the Location ID and trap model. 5.2 Take Measurement 1) Measurements should be taken from the inlet side of the trap. If the measurement point is at the outlet, measurement accuracy cannot be assured. 2) Press the probe against the measurement point. Measurements begin automatically once the probe is applied to the measurement point. 3) It takes 15 seconds after placing the probe against Trap Inlet the measurement surface for the measurement to be complete. Be sure to hold the probe perpendicular and steady for this entire period. 5.3 Automatic Judgment 1) After 15 sec measurement, TM6 confirms some parameters. You can change the parameters if needed. 2) TM6 displays a test result. You can modify the test result if needed. 5.4 Upload Inspected Data 1) After the test result is fixed, the inspected data is transmitted to TrapManager-
Pro automatically. 2) After transmitting is successful, the display of TM6 returns to the normal. RN070405A_TM6Manual_01E.doc 9 6. Settings 6.1 Access Setting Selection 1) With the power on, simultaneously press []+[ENT]. 2) Perform the following actions for each setting:
