Specifications

59407, Issue 1 – March 2008

Thermocouple Performance

Calibration:

Complies with BS4937, NBS125 and IEC584.

Measurement
Accuracy:

0.1% of full range span 1LSD.
NOTE: Reduced performance for B Thermocouple from 100 to 600°C.
NOTE: PtRh 20% vs PtRh 40% Thermocouple accuracy is 0.25% and
has reduced performance below 800°C.

Linearization
Accuracy:

Linearization better than better 0.2°C (0.05 typical) for J, K, L, N and
T thermocouples; than better than 0.5°C for other types.

Cold Junction
Compensation:

If enabled, CJC error is better than 1C under operating conditions.

Sensor Resistance
Influence:

Thermocouple 100Ω: <0.1% of span error.
Thermocouple 1000Ω: <0.5% of span error.

Sensor Break
Protection:

Break detected within two seconds. Process Control outputs go to the
pre-set power value. High and Senor Break Alarms operate.
