PASS PTC-8 Thermocouple Calibrator
The PASS PTC-8 is a compact, simple-to-use thermocouple calibrator. It is capable of measuring and simulating up to 8 types of thermocouples (J, K, T, E, R, S, B, N), as well as a voltage in mV.
One advantage of this instrument type is its ability to calibrate without removing the target device from the process. Moreover, calibrating an instrument in its actual operating environment is preferable. However, not all quantities can be handled in this manner. Currently, on-site calibrators are primarily used for electrical signals and temperature calibration.
The calibrator serves two primary functions. First, it generates precise values for a signal, which are then applied upstream in the measurement chain. Second, it measures the signal itself. If a panel meter is present at the end of the chain, you can compare its reading to the calibrator's indication. Otherwise, the simulated input value is directly compared to the signal measured by the calibrator.
The PASS PTC-8 provides extended battery life for field use when operating independently on battery power. When connected to the mains, it can be used continuously without any time constraints.
