Reference thermometers perform trending

18 March 2009 Test & Measurement

New from Fluke are the 1523 and 1524 reference thermometers that measure, graph and record PRTs, thermocouples and thermistors.

These thermometer readouts deliver high accuracy, wide measurement range, logging and trending in a handheld tool, making them suitable for field and laboratory measurements.

The meters can measure PRTs between -200°C and 100°C with ±0,011°C accuracy, type J, K, L and M thermocouples between -200°C and 2315°C accurate to ±0,24°C and precision thermistors from -50°C to 150°C with ±0,002°C accuracy. They can obtain PRT readings at 0,45 seconds per sample, while thermocouple and thermistor readings require only 0,3 seconds per sample.

Both meters feature a 128x64 pixel backlit LCD and are capable of plotting and trending in realtime. The 1523 is a single-channel model with enough memory for 25 readings and statistics. The 1524 has two channels which can be sampled simultaneously, a realtime clock for time and date stamps, and can log 15 000 measurements.
