Best practice in connecting thermocouple probes
Careful decisions must be made on how to connect the remotely located thermocouple sensor to the host instrumentation in order to optimise accuracy and minimise cost.
The inputs can be thermocouple types J,K or T or Pt100 and all connections are made via the front panel.
A built-in display and easy menu driven system mean that the loggers are fully independent of a PC for Site use.
Power is provided by four AA batteries or rechargeable batteries and a mains adaptor/charger.
The measurement accuracy with thermocouples is +/-0.5C and +/-0.24C with Pt100 inputs and, with a display resolution of 0.1C, the system is a high accuracy digital thermometer in its own right.
Acquired data is secure, even with the batteries exhausted or removed and the system is password protected.
Connecting the loggers to a PC via the USB communications cable supplied and using the Windows DAU software provided results in a complete data acquisition system.
Functions include multiple data logging sets, review and archive data, export data into Excel or CSV formats, set-up parameters, graphical interface and calibrate.
