The Pt100\/Pt1000 and thermocouple thermometer <\/strong>is a dual-input portable instrument designed for temperature measurement using two different sensor technologies: Pt100\/Pt1000 RTD probes<\/strong> and thermocouples<\/strong>. It is suitable when the application requires either high-stability RTD sensors or thermocouples for extended temperature ranges and fast response times.<\/p>\n

The instrument features one input for 3-wire or 4-wire Pt100 probes and 2-wire Pt1000 probes<\/strong>, with 8-pole connector and SICRAM module compatibility, plus one dedicated input for K, J, T, N and E thermocouples<\/strong> with standard polarized miniature connector. This configuration makes the instrument more flexible than standard Pt100 thermometers, allowing the most suitable probe type to be selected according to the application: immersion, penetration, surface or air measurements.<\/p>\n

With Pt100\/Pt1000 probes, the measuring range is -200 to +650 \u00b0C<\/strong>, while with thermocouples the range varies according to the connected type: K -200 to +1370 \u00b0C, J -100 to +750 \u00b0C, T -200 to +400 \u00b0C, N -200 to +1300 \u00b0C, E -200 to +750 \u00b0C<\/strong>. The resolution is 0.1 \u00b0C<\/strong>, with selectable units in \u00b0C and \u00b0F.<\/p>\n

RTD probes equipped with SICRAM module<\/strong> technology are automatically recognized by the instrument and internally store calibration data. This allows safe and correct probe association, especially when different sensors are used for different applications.<\/p>\n

The thermocouple input considerably extends the operating range. Pt100\/Pt1000 RTD probes<\/strong> are generally preferred where stability, accuratezza and repeatable measurements are required over a wide range, while thermocouples<\/strong> are more suitable for fast response, lightweight probes, high-temperature applications or measurements in difficult-to-access areas.<\/p>\n

The instrument includes RS232C output<\/strong> for real-time data transfer to PC or portable printers. Baud rate can be configured from 1200 to 38400 baud<\/strong>, and print interval can be immediate or menu-configurable. For USB connection to a PC, a dedicated USB\/serial converter is required.<\/p>\n

Functions include Max, Min and Avg<\/strong>, relative measurement REL<\/strong>, HOLD<\/strong> and selectable auto power-off. Its IP66 protection rating<\/strong> makes the instrument suitable for field use, laboratory work, maintenance and industrial inspections.<\/p>\n

Pt100\/Pt1000 RTD probes comply with IEC 60751<\/strong>, defining platinum sensor tolerance classes. Thermocouples comply with IEC 60584-1:2013<\/strong>, defining tolerance classes and operating ranges for thermocouple types.<\/p>\n

    FAQ – Pt100\/Pt1000 and Thermocouple Thermometer<\/h2>\n

    When should a Pt100\/Pt1000 and thermocouple thermometer be selected?<\/strong>
    \nIt is suitable when a flexible instrument is required, capable of operating with both Pt100\/Pt1000 RTD probes and thermocouples. It is useful when different applications require different sensor technologies depending on temperature range, response time or measuring conditions.<\/p>\n

    What is the difference compared to a Pt100-only thermometer?<\/strong>
    \nA Pt100-only thermometer works exclusively with RTD probes. This model also supports K, J, T, N and E thermocouples, allowing measurements over wider temperature ranges and with sensors often more suitable for fast response or difficult measuring points.<\/p>\n

    Which thermocouples can it use?<\/strong>
    \nIt can operate with K, J, T, N and E thermocouples using standard polarized miniature connectors.<\/p>\n

    What is the measuring range with Pt100 and Pt1000 probes?<\/strong>
    \nWith Pt100 or Pt1000 probes the measuring range is -200 to +650 \u00b0C, depending on the connected probe.<\/p>\n

    What is the measuring range with K-type thermocouple?<\/strong>
    \nWith K-type thermocouple the instrument range reaches -200 to +1370 \u00b0C. The effective operating range also depends on the thermocouple used.<\/p>\n

    When is it better to use Pt100 and when a thermocouple?<\/strong>
    \nPt100 probes are preferable where stability and accuratezza are required in controlled measurements. Thermocouples are more suitable for high temperatures, fast response times, lightweight probes or difficult-to-access measuring points.<\/p>\n

    Does the instrument internally record data?<\/strong>
    \nNo. This version is not datalogger-enabled. It does however allow real-time transfer of measurements through RS232C output.<\/p>\n

    Can it be connected to a printer?<\/strong>
    \nYes. Through the RS232C interface it can be connected to a compatible portable printer using the dedicated cable.<\/p>\n

    Are probes included?<\/strong>
    \nNo. Pt100\/Pt1000 probes, thermocouples and data transfer cables must be selected and ordered separately according to the application.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
