4.3 Linearity calibration
1.

Proceed with basic calibration, see above.

2.

Add 1 % of the temperature span to the selected "minimum"
temperature and set this value on a PT 100 simulator (when
using a precision resistance decade, where necessary ob-
serve DIN IEC 751 conversion table from °C to

!) and cali-

brate the signal conditioner output signal to 0.100 V using
the null potentiometer.

3.

Set the mean temperature "(

ϑ

max

+

ϑ

min

)/2" on the PT 100

simulator.
Determine the difference to the desired value:
"

U = shown value on measuring instrument - 5.000 V" and

calibrate the output signal to (5.000 V -

U) using the span

potentiometer.

4.

Set the "maximum" selected temperature

max

on a PT 100

simulator and calibrate the signal output to 10.000 V using
the lin potentiometer.

5.

Repeat steps 2 to 4 until the required accuracy is achieved.
