Using Fluke Calibration Readouts with Tungsten-Rhenium and other Thermocouples (381.29 KB)

Fluke Calibration readouts, including models 1529 and 1560, will display temperature for many of the common letter-designated types of thermocouples using standard algorithms. There are other types of thermocouples for which the readouts do not have the algorithms built in. These include tungsten-rhenium thermocouples (type C). The readouts can still calculate temperature for these thermocouples using the polynomial conversion option, but it requires the user to enter polynomial coefficients. This document provides polynomial coefficients that allow the Fluke Calibration readouts to directly display temperature for some of these special types of thermocouples.
