In this dialog, you define the type of temperature sensor you have con-
nected to the selected measuring input.

ADC type

Type of analog-digital converter.

Serial number

Serial number of the measuring interface.

Thick film type

Type of the thick film.

Temperature sensor

Type

The instrument supports the use of two different temperature measure-
ment techniques:

NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient)

Pt1000 (Platinum resistance)

Select here the type that has been connected to the instrument. If an NTC
sensor is used, then it is also necessary to enter two sensor characteristics.
These characteristics are listed in the specifications of the sensor.

Selection

Pt1000 | NTC

Default value

Pt1000

R (25 °C)

This parameter can only be edited with Type = NTC.

Nominal resistance of the NTC sensor at 25 °C.

Input range

1000 - 99999 ohm

Default value

30000 ohm
The default value applies to Metrohm sensors with
an NTC sensor.

B value

This parameter can only be edited with Type = NTC.

Material constant of the NTC sensor. B values of NTC sensors are fre-
quently based on different reference temperatures (usually 25 °C and
50…100 °C). When entering the B value the influence of the second ref-
erence temperature is negligible in comparison with the measuring accu-
racy of an NTC sensor.
