Measurement Accuracy
1
1
Total system measurement error for operating temperature within ±5 °C of calibration temperature. Includes
PCI/AT-MIO-16XE-50 one-year accuracy specification of 0.01% ±412 μV. SCC-TC01/02 accuracy specification of
0.08% ±5 μV, and reference junction measurement accuracy of 0.5 °C. Assumes averaging. Non-averaged, single-point
reading has an additional uncertainty (up to ±0.1 °C for J-type thermocouple).
