Temperature and Humidity
Measurements (B2985B/B2987B)
B2985B/B2987B can also perform external temperature measurement and relative
humidity measurement. Temperature and humidity measurement results are
displayed on the Meter view.

Temperature Measurement

The N1423A Type K thermocouple or equivalent can be used for external
temperature measurement. The N1423A is furnished with the B2985B/B2987B.
Connect the thermocouple to the Temperature Type K connector on the rear
panel. Instead of the thermocouple, the thermometer in the humidity sensor can
be used for the temperature measurement.
External temperature measurement is controlled (enabled or disabled) by the
Temperature field settings in the Display Preference dialog box opened by System
Menu > Display > Pref. operations. See
page
Always isolate the thermocouple to prevent measurement from errors. Do not
expose it.

Humidity Measurement

Humidity sensor EE Elektronik EE07 or equivalent can be used for relative
humidity measurement. Connect the humidity sensor to the Humidity connector
on the rear panel by using a 5-pin connector head furnished with the
B2985B/B2987B and connection cable (EE Elektronik HA010819 or equivalent).

Relative humidity measurement is controlled (enabled or disabled) by the
