1Introduction
The 1050 is a handheld precision simulator for Pt100 0.3850 platinum resistance elements
used for accurate temperature measurement. It follows the Pt100 scale from -100 °F to
+1000 °F with 23 set points. High performance metal film resistors are used to ensure a
good temperature coefficient and long-term stability. Being designed with passive resistors
throughout, the instrument does not require batteries to power up, making it a convenient
and compact solution for field calibration and testing work.
The specification is in accordance with DIN EN 60751 (ITS 90). Offering high accuracy
across the full operating range of Pt100 devices it exceeds the performance of class A
and B. The 1050 is particularly suitable for users operating in the -80 to +140 °F range and
requiring performance exceeding class A (better than ± 0.5 °F at 0 °F).
Since the 1050 output is a purely passive resistance it will operate with all types of Pt100
measuring equipment including the live systems using pulsed, or interrupted excitation
current. The pocket-sized design (112 x 61 x 55 mm) makes it easily portable for field use.
The instrument is supplied as standard with a carry case.
Features
•–100 °F to +1000 °F
•± 0.5 °F accuracy
•Based on ITS 90 EN 60751
•23 set points
•Exceeds class A
•Good temperature stability
•Passive resistance source
