1.1

Introduction

The Reference Thermometer Readouts (1523, 1524) are designed to be reliable, stable, temperature measur-
ing instruments that can be used in the field or laboratory. They offer accuracy, portability, and speed for near-
ly every field calibration application. The instruments have been designed with the field user in mind and are
easy to use while maintaining stability, uniformity, and accuracy comparable to some laboratory instruments.
Your Fluke 1523 and 1524 thermometer readout is a handheld, battery operated instrument that measures tem-
perature using Platinum resistance Thermometers (PRT), Thermistors, and Thermocouples (TC).
