New Wall Chart from Labfacility for Thermocouple & Resistance Thermometry
The new Wall Chart shows the 2008 international standards for industrial platinum resistance temperature sensor tolerances separately for the first time for wirewound and flat film sensing resistors and also for sensor assemblies.
The new thermocouple and platinum resistance thermometry wall chart “050099DS/A” from Labfacility provides a wealth of useful, practical data for engineers, scientists, technicians and students concerned with temperature measurement. Published in a convenient A4, 2 sided format, the Chart can be wall mounted or folder housed as required. The “Thermocouple” side includes cable and connector colour codes, tolerance classes and a shortform table of calibration values.
The platinum Resistance Thermometer side includes the new tables of tolerance classes for wirewound and flat film platinum resistors and for complete assemblies the former table of tolerance classes A & B, termination colour codes and practical bridge circuits for 2,3 & 4 wire versions. Stem conduction and self-heating are also described. The Wall Chart is invaluable as a source of “up to date” reference for anyone concerned with temperature measurement and as a training aid. It is available on request, free of charge from Labfacility.
