Internal Options (Choose At Time Of Order)

PRT/RTD Temperature Simulation (Option PRT, Included in 4610A models)

Transmille 4610A multiproduct calibrator PRT option

The PRT option simplifies calibration of high-accuracy resistance thermometers. Reliable readings are guaranteed regardless of measurement technique, because the calibrator uses passive precision resistors. When the PRT option is calibrated, the precise temperature values on the ITS-90 scale for PT-385 resistors are stored in the memory. The values can be recalled and displayed every time a specific resistor is chosen, to allow accurate calibration.

When combined with the SIMRC option, an additional 2-Wire variable output is available, which enables simulation of any value.

Simulated Resistance & Capacitance (Option SIMRC, Included in 4610A models)

This option allows for resistance calibration between cardinal points. It has a continuous resistance range between 0 Ohms and 1 GOhms, with variable capacitance from 0.95uF to 100mF.

This option enables calibration of multimeters with non-decade calibration points.
