Measurement of temperature using thermocouples
The built-in multimeter allows the measurement of mV DC and temperature using external thermocouple.
Option 80 cable adapter is required. Temperature of cold junction must be set manually. To activate the
measurement, select T TC function mode using METER button in the function menu and press INPUT to
measure the input value.
Connection of thermocouple to Option 80 cable adapter:
Testing of control unit, transducers and evaluation units
The calibrator can be used for calibration and testing of various instruments and regulators which must be fed by
precise signal and whose response (electrical signal) is to be measured.
Two methods of connection can be used, each of them having different function and generation and
measurement ranges.
Simultaneous mode can only be used if Opt 40, 60, 80 cable adapter is connected to AUXILIARY terminal.
When no adapter is connected, simultaneous mode cannot be activated.
Option 40/60 cable adapter application
Cable adapter Option 40 cable supports simultaneous mode - measurement of voltage up to 12 V, current up to
25 mA and frequency up to 15 kHz. Option 60 cable adapter is designed for four-wire measurement of resistance
or temperature using resistance temperature sensors.
Option 70 application
The adapter is aimed for four-wire sourcing of resistance values and for four-wire resistance temperature sensor
simulation. Re-calibration of resistance function of the calibrator can be performed only with this adapter.
Resistance ranges are the same as two-wire resistance ranges with output on Hi – Lo terminals on front panel.
When adapter Option 70 is used, resistance output is only on output terminals on this adapter. Front panel Hi –
Lo terminals are switched off.
