IMPORTANT
When calculating total measurement error, module error at 25 °C (77 °F) is only
one factor in deriving the total measurement error budget.
Other factors that impact thermocouple measurement error include
the following:
•
Thermocouple sensor accuracy/error
•
Conditions of thermocouple wire, such as wire length
•
Cold junction compensation values
