Introduction1.1
The Reference Thermometer Readouts (1523, 1524) are designed to be reliable, stable, temperature measur-
ing instruments that can be used in the eld or laboratory. They offer accuracy, portability, and speed for near-
ly every eld calibration application. The instruments have been designed with the eld user in mind and are
easy to use while maintaining stability, uniformity, and accuracy comparable to some laboratory instruments.

perature using Platinum resistance Thermometers (PRT), Thermistors, and Thermocouples (TC).
