10.5.4 Thermocouple (TC)
These active sensors are made of two wires of different metals or metal alloys fused together at one end.
When the fused junction is heated, a thermal EMF is produced at the wire ends. The amplitude of the
EMF depends on the type of metals used and the temperature difference between the measuring point
and the reference junction.
Materials used nowadays comply with the set of fundamental values given in DIN EN 60584 and
DIN 43710.
Perform the following steps to carry out a calibration:
Note:
Before a calibration, connect all the sensors to the digital indicator. If all the sensors that are connected to
the digital indicator during normal operation are not connected, measurement errors can arise in the
calibration.
Note:
If necessary, you can abort the fine adjustment procedure for the analog output from the parameter
