6.2.4 Measuring resistance and temperature with a resistance thermometer
The model CEP3000 offers three possibilities for measuring the resistance (Ω) and the
temperature with a resistance thermometer: 2-, 3- and 4-wire measurement. The highest
accuracy is obtained with a 4-wire connection.
Figures 4 - 6 show the connection of the model CEP3000 for the three different
measurement types.
1. In order to select the
