1.0 GENERAL
This chapter provides an introduction to the Model 211 Temperature
Monitor. The Model 211 was designed and manufactured in the United
States of America by Lake Shore Cryotronics, Inc. A general description is
provided in Paragraph 1.1, specifications in Paragraph 1.2, safety summary
in Paragraph 1.3, and safety symbols in Paragraph 1.4.
1.1 DESCRIPTION
The Lake Shore single-channel Model 211 Temperature Monitor provides
the accuracy, resolution, and interface features of a benchtop temperature
monitor in an easy to use, easily integrated, compact instrument. With
appropriate sensors, the Model 211 measures temperature from 1.4 to 800 K
and in difficult sensing conditions, including high vacuum and magnetic
fields. Alarms, relays, user-configurable analog voltage or current output,
and a serial interface are standard features on the Model 211. Backed by the
Lake Shore tradition of excellence in cryogenic and precision temperature
measurement for science and industry, the Model 211 is a good choice for
liquefied gas storage/monitoring, cryopump control, cryo-cooler, and
materials science applications, and for applications that require greater
accuracy than thermocouples allow.
