The MDS41 is a high-precision digital benchtop meter,
with 2 models that accept either thermocouple or
RTD inputs. The large, easy-to-read 13 mm (0.5")
display features 6 digits with 0.01° resolution. The
thermocouple input model has 9 thermocouple
types in memory, any one of which can be selected
through the front panel. The RTD input model can be
programmed for a linear resistance or one of two
100 Ω platinum curves, 0.00385 or 0.00392 (2- or
3- wire RTD). The unit is switchable to °C/°F/K.

The single-channel unit includes a universal rear
connector which accepts either the miniature or
standard quick disconnect connector. The 10-channel
MDSS uses screw terminals for temperature input.

Optional scalable analog output is available and can
be ordered as a 0 to 10 Vdc or 4 to 20 mA. The analog
output provides a retransmission of the measured
temperature for recorders or dataloggers.

DP41 series.

Economical Series

The DS (single-input) and the DSS
(10-input) benchtop cases are
OMEGA’s more economical cases.
The DS and DSS cases maintain
the versatility of panel meters and
the portability of a benchtop. The
DS and DSS are a beige color.
