Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer Description
The Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer can be used to measure, graph and record PRTs, thermistors and thermocouples. It is also suitable for logging temperature data.
To facilitate its extensive measurement and data logging capabilities the Fluke 1524-256 includes three sensors with the following ranges and accuracies:
- PRT sensor: -200°C to 1000°C (±0.011°C)
- Thermocouple sensor: -200°C to 2315°C (±0.24°C for J, K, L and M)
- Thermistor sensor: -50°C to 150°C (±0.002°C)
Measurements can be taken simultaneously via the Fluke 1524-256’s two channels. Readings from both channels may also be viewed simultaneously via the 128 x 64-pixel, backlit, LCD display, along with a trend graph that is plotted and scaled in real-time. The resolution of the graph can be altered using a dedicated function button, allowing the user to monitor processes over time and determine temperature stability quickly and without the use of statistics.
The Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer has a standard sample rate of one reading per second. However; it can be used in Fast Mode to take measurements once every 0.3 seconds. In addition to this, it is possible to configure the instrument to take readings as sporadically as once every hour. Sample rates can be set to occur anywhere between once every hour and once every 0.3 seconds, allowing the user to tailor the instrument to the application.
Adding to this instrument’s adaptability is its ability to accommodate RTDs/PRTs, thermistors and thermocouples. Probes can be locked to particular channels via the use of a password in order to preserve system calibration traceability. This instrument is able to recognise which probe has been connected and will recall the relevant calibration information from the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer’s INFO-CON memory chip. This ensures that the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer is suitably adjusted to perform correct temperature conversions for accurate measurements.
Probe configurations can be created using the included Fluke 9940 Toolkit Software and may be uploaded to the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer via the RS-232 interface. These accessories can also be used to send commands directly to the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer, as well as log and organise data captured by the thermometer.
The Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer includes an extensive onboard memory capable of saving up to 15 000 measurements. These readings can be saved with date and time stamps due to the inclusion of a real-time clock.
This instrument also includes a highly stable reference voltage source and precision thermistors. These components maintain the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer’s accuracy regardless of external temperature conditions. The Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer has also been tested in extremes of temperature and harsh vibration conditions to ensure its accuracy and functionality are maintained in challenging environments.
Also working to preserve the accuracy of this instrument is the utilisation of a current-reversal technique which eliminates thermal EMFs.
In addition to this product’s accuracy, reliability and versatility, it has also been designed for longevity of operation. As such it may be powered for up to twenty hours using three AA batteries and includes power-saving settings which may be activated in order to extend its operating time. Furthermore, the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer is supplied with a DC adapter which allows the instrument to remain functional in between charges.
The Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer’s accuracy, reliability, versatility and practicality make it suitable for a variety of applications including:
- Calibration
- Loop-checking
- Plant start-up
- Troubleshooting
- Maintenance
- Repair
It is also suitable for use as a temperature reference and temperature logger in calibration baths, dry-block calibrators, thermowells, clean rooms, engines, heat exchangers, furnaces and freezers. It is ideal for a variety of temperature measurement and calibration applications.

Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe Description
The Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe can be used with the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer to measure temperatures between -200°C and 420°C.
This instrument has been optimised for accuracy (±0.012°C at 0°C). It is supplied with an NVLAP- accredited calibration (lab code 200706-0) and has been calibrated between -196°C and 420°C.
Further to this, the Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe has been calibrated using ITS-90 coefficients making it suitable for use with Fluke’s more sensitive temperature calibrators.
As well as the NVLAP-accredited calibration, the Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe is supplied with sensor resistance information in 1°C increments.
The design of this probe also works to maintain its accuracy and reliability. It is made from reference-grade platinum wire (99.999% purity), ensuring stability. This wire is then wound in a coil and placed in a mandrel in order to ensure that it is uniformly supported, thereby keeping hysteresis to a minimum.
In addition to this, the Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe’s electrical configuration, a four-wire, current-potential hookup, removes the effects of lead-wire resistance.
Furthermore, the element of this probe is protected by an Iconel™ 600 sheath (305mm in length and 6.35mm in diameter) and a ceramic case with a hermetic glass seal. These components protect the probe from contaminants and moisture thereby preserving the Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe’s longevity and outward stability.
The Fluke 5615-12-P Secondary Reference Temperature Probe is a cost-effective, accurate and reliable alternative to 100Ω RTDs and SPRTs. It is ideal for expanding the Fluke 1524-256 2-Channel Handheld Thermometer’s scope-for-use.
