Introduction

The 7000 is a portable process control test instrument that combines a precision digital
thermometer (using RTD probes) with an RTD/ohms calibrator. Compact and easy to use,
it solves the problem of making high accuracy temperature measurements without using
bulky mains powered instrumentation.
Powered from internal long life rechargeable batteries or an external mains adaptor, it is
equally valuable in laboratory, workshop or the field. It can also be used as an external
temperature reference for dry block and other precision temperature baths.
If used with a certified probe the unit performs as a highly accurate thermometer. Readout
is available in ºC; ºF and ºK.
The 7000 is specifically designed to automate and to speed up the task of calibrating
instrumentation used in the process control industry. Simply enter in engineering units
(ºC, ºF or ºK) the desired zero and span values and the calibrator will automatically calculate
the standard five calibration points (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100%).
The 7000 calibrator is powered by a rechargeable NiMH battery pack. The charger
electronics are contained within the unit enabling the calibrator to be charged from any
12 Volt DC supply.
