Warning: The AC adapter has circuits with high voltages inside that could
present danger of electric shock or fire if exposed. If the AC adapter is damaged
in any way or becomes hot, discontinue its use immediately, disconnect it from
any AC supply, and have it replaced. Do not attempt to open, repair, or continue
using a damaged or defective AC adapter
3.3 Probe
The probe is used to sense temperature. The 1523 is a single channel instrument and
can measure using one probe. The 1524 is a dual channel instrument and can measure
using two probes simultaneously. The probes attach to the 1523/24 using a Hart INFO-
CON probe connector that plugs into the top of the instrument. The probe connector
must be properly programmed with the correct characteristics of the probe for mea-
surements to be accurate.
The 1523/24 can be used with various types of PRTs, Thermistors and Thermocouple
probes:
●
ITS-90 calibrated 25 Ω or 100 Ω PRT
●
Callender-Van Dusen calibrated 100 Ω PRT,
●
Steinhart-Hart thermistor R(T) polynomial; nominal R (25°C) 2KΩ to 100KΩ.
●
Types B, C, E, J, K, L, M, N, R, S, T, U Thermocouples
The 1523 can measure PRT probes having 4 wires, thermistors, or thermocouples. The
1524 can measure PRT probes having 4 wires, and thermistors on either channel 1 or
channel 2, and can measure thermocouples on channel 1 (only). Channel 2 on the 1524
cannot be used with thermocouples.
