TEMPERATURE PROBE:

(Option 2021N-26001)
This probe can be purchased for the MC2 for the purpose of recording temperatures. Recording
the temperature of the device under test is highly recommended due to the characteristics of the
increase of resistance of a metallic object as its temperature increases.
There are temperature compensation tables for Copper and Aluminum available to calculate the
conversion factor (See page 16 for this option). The MC2 is a very accurate and precise test
system. To take full advantage of this high accuracy, the temperature of the device under test
should be recorded.
The temperature probe is mounted to a flexible extension cable that plugs into the front panel of
the MC2. This option enables the user to record the ambient temperature or the actual
temperature of the device under test.
The MC2 will automatically sense when the optional temperature probe, 2021N-26001, is
connected to it. The temperature will be displayed on the instrument screen during a test and will
appear when a print report is requested. The temperature, as well as the test results, can be saved
into memory. The temperature can only be viewed during a test and on a printed report.
The actual temperature measured is displayed and can be saved into memory.
