Calibration

The SDS data logger is calibrated prior to shipment.  The calibration process is available through the touch screen Menu on the data logger.  Instructions for calibration are included in this manual.  Super Systems calibrates the SDS data logger using NIST traceable instruments that are listed on the calibration certificate included with the device.  The default calibration is performed using a zero and span routine for the millivolt range of 0 – 80mV unless otherwise specified on the purchase order.  Ranges and thermocouple types will be listed on the certification provided with the SDS data logger.  Each range that is being used should be calibrated.  For a list of suggested mV ranges by thermocouple types, please refer to Table 1 - Thermocouple Types, Scaling, and Accuracy.  Other calibration ranges are available upon request.

 

An input device will be used to input a specific type K thermocouple value and the data logger value will be recorded.  This will be performed at different temperatures and printed with the certificate.
