CALIBRATION
INTRODUCTION
It is recommended that the EX10xxA/EX10xxA-51C/RX10xx/EX1044 have factory calibration
performed annually to ensure that the instrument maintains its accuracy and precision. The
following procedure describes the resources and steps necessary to perform factory calibration and
is valid for the following assemblies:
70-0355-100: EX1000A, 48-Ch Voltage Input Instrument
70-0355-200: EX1016A, 32-Ch Voltage, 16-Ch TC Input Instrument
70-0355-300: EX1032A, 16-Ch Voltage, 32-Ch TC Input Instrument
70-0355-400: EX1048A, 48-Ch TC Input Instrument
70-0355-500: EX1000A-TC, 48-Ch Voltage Input Instrument with TC Connectors
70-0564-000: EX1000A-51C, 51-Ch Voltage Input Instrument
70-0536-000: RX1032, 32-Ch Thermocouple/Voltage Instrument
70-0355-451: EX1044, 48-Ch Thermocouple/Voltage/ Current (Isolated) Instrument
