System Accuracy (reading in temperature units): Includes the HHC base unit and GQS-TC1 interface module.
(Does not include inaccuracy of the thermocouple device. Consult thermocouple manufacturer or ISA MC96.1 for
thermocouple accuracy specifications. Typical inaccuracies range from ±1 to ±2.2°C.)

Conversion Factors (to convert °C specifications to other units of measure):
To convert from °C to °F: °F = (1.8 x °C) +32
To convert from °C to °K: °K = °C +273.15
To convert from °C to °R: °R = (1.8 x °C) +427.67
