Model 2701 User’s Manual Temperature Equations F-7
NOTE The specified thermistor temperature measurement accuracy of the Model 2701
(see Appendix A) is based on the curve fitting constants listed in Table F-9. If the
thermistor manufacturer’s curve fitting constants are not exactly the same as the
ones listed in Table F-9, accuracy will be affected.
1. Choose the thermistor type to be used; 2252
Ω
, 5k
Ω
, or 10k
Ω
.
2. Compare the A, B, and C constants from the thermistor manufacturer with those
used by the Model 2701 (see Table F-9).
3. Select a thermistor that closely matches the A, B, and C constants in Table F-9.
4. Analyze the differences between the two sets of curve fitting constants to
determine the affect on measurement accuracy.
Converting K to °C — The temperature in Kelvin can be converted to °C as follows:
T
°C
= T
K
- 273.15
where: T
°C
is the temperature in °C.
T
K
is the calculated Kelvin temperature.
Example — Calculate the temperature for a Series 44007 thermistor that measures
