MicroCal 1 Plus, Thermocouple Simulator and Thermometer
- tests thermocouple type K, J, T, R, N, S & E thermometers
- for frequent checking of thermometer accuracies
- 12 preset, adjustable temperature points
- both measures and simulates temperature
- 5-point UKAS Calibration Certificate included
The MicroCal 1 Plus simulator helps ensure that the frequent checking of thermometer accuracies is a routine operation. The instrument is designed to simulate a chosen temperature to test thermocouple type K, J, T, R, N, S and E thermometers without the need for specialised equipment or conversion tables.
The calibrator features a custom 10 mm LCD display with alpha-numeric display line to prompt the user when changing parameters. Selectable parameters include: °C/°F, auto-power off - enable/disable, CJC - internal/external and display contrast adjustment.
thermocouple type K - range -200 to +1372 °C
thermocouple type J - range -200 to +1200 °C
thermocouple type T - range -270 to +400 °C
thermocouple type R - range 0 to +1768 °C
thermocouple type N - range -200 to +1300 °C
thermocouple type S - range 0 to +1768 °C
thermocouple type E - range -140 to +1000 °C
Each MicroCal is supplied with a one metre PVC type K thermocouple lead with miniature connectors and a five-point UKAS Certificate of Calibration.
Each certificate indicates deviations from standards at the various points.
An optional lead set is also available, that comprises of seven leads, one for each thermocouple type K, J, T, R, N, S and E. Each PVC lead is one metre long and incorporates two miniature thermocouple plugs.
MicroCal 1 Plus used as a thermometer:
The device can be switched from simulator to thermometer function and can then be used with thermocouple sensors of the above types for temperature measurements.
