5.3  Input Calibration Preliminary Information 
Equipment needed 
Table 5-2 lists the equipment required to calibrate various types of inputs. You will also need a medium size 
bladed screwdriver for general use and a small bladed screwdriver for use with the screws on the connector 
plugs. 
 
Table 5-2  Equipment Needed for Calibration 
Type of Input 
Equipment Needed 
Thermocouple Inputs 
(Compensated Calibrator) 
•  A compensated calibrator with ± 0.02 % accuracy. 
•  Thermocouple extension wire that corresponds with the type of 
thermocouple that will be used with the recorder input. 
Thermocouple Inputs  
(Ice Bath) 
•  A calibrating device with ± 0.02 % accuracy for use as a signal source 
such as a millivolt source. 
•  Thermocouple extension wire that corresponds with the type of 
thermocouple that will be used with the recorder input. 
•  Two insulated copper leads for connecting the thermocouple 
extension wire from the ice baths to the precision calibrator. 
•  Two containers of crushed ice, or an ice point reference. 
RTD (Resistance Temperature 
Detector) 
•  A resistance decade box, with ± 0.02 % accuracy, capable of 
providing stepped resistance values over a minimum range of 0 ohms 
to 1400 ohms with a resolution of 0.01 ohm. 
•  Three insulated copper leads for connecting the decade box to the 
recorder. 
Milliamp, Millivolt, and Volts 
Inputs 
•  A calibrating device with ± 0.02 % accuracy for use as a signal source.
•  Two insulated copper leads for connecting the calibrator to the 
recorder.
