4.5 Selecting Sensors/Probes and Adjusting Parameters
4.5.1 Probe Types
AM8060 can work with different types of PRTs. Users can
choose probe types and input the parameters of the probes.
The menu key
MENU
and return/right shift key
can be used for
probe selections and parameter adjustments.
The probes compatible with AM8060 are:
25 Ω or 100 Ω SPRTs, or
25 Ω or 100 Ω Secondary PRTs, or
100 Ω IPRTs.
The temperature coefficient of these probes can either be
0.00385 Ω/Ω/°C or 0.003925 Ω/Ω/°C.
The probe types working with AM8060 are classified and
displayed as IPRT and SPRT
：
If the probe is an industrial or precision platinum resistance
thermometer probe with a temperature coefficient of 0.00385
Ω/Ω/°C, AM8060 will categorize the probe as “IPRT”.
AM8060 calculates temperature according to CVD (IEC751)
equation.
