Temperature Measurement


NIST traceable recording thermometers

January 2002 Temperature Measurement

The Fluke 2620T/2635T recording thermometers are now on offer from Spescom MeasureGraph. They are precision multichannel temperature recording and logging instruments that deliver up to 0,1° accuracy (3 sigma, one year accuracy specification) for temperature monitoring and calibration applications.

Based on Fluke's 20-channel, new Hydra Series II data loggers, these units are matched with a precision SPRT probe (RTD) on channel one and calibrated as a system for maximum accuracy and precision. Each unit is delivered with current calibration data, ready for use.

These recording thermometers include a NIST traceable and DKD certified calibration (with certificate) that covers the Hydra Series II and probe as a system. A soft protective case is supplied to protect the probe when not in use.

Hydra Logger Software is also included with each unit for support of basic data collection and easy instrument configuration. Optional Trend Link for Fluke trending software (model 2600A-904) is also available for electronic chart recording display and analysis.

In addition to being a precision thermometer, both models are capable of measuring up to 18 additional inputs from thermocouple, DC and AC volts, frequency, and 2-wire Ohms. A total of 10 RTD probes can be connected and recorded at one time.

Fluke 2620T

The Fluke 2620T is based on the Hydra 2620A data acquisition unit. It passes data directly to an attendant computer for realtime collection and data storage using supplied software. The 2620T may also be monitored from the front panel display without being connected to a computer.

Fluke 2635T

The 2635T is based on a Fluke Hydra Series II Data Bucket data logger, which uses a PCMCIA memory card (256K) for storage of time stamped data. Data files may be imported to any standard spreadsheet for analysis and documentation. The 2635T user's manual (PN 932160) reflects all operational specifications and unit information except the 2635T's special calibration data, which is specific to each unit.

2600A-101 SPRT probe

EXTRA temperature probe: 2600A-101 is secondary standard, 4-wire .385 platinum 100 Ohm RTD probe. It is 305 mm long, 6 mm in diameter, with an integral handle and 1,8 m Teflon jacketed wire.
