TC SERIES
PORTABLE & ACCURATE TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION MADE EASY
Like most temperature calibrators you’ll find in this catalog, the TC Series generates true thermal
references, not electronically-simulated ones. The TC Series’ lightweight, compact design makes them
ideal for calibrating your temperature sensors on-site. All Tek Know calibrators come with interchangeable
inserts that can be drilled with single or multiple immersion chambers to meet the specifications of your sensors.
Programmable in either Celsius or Fahrenheit, the two-button operation allows for easy programming. And with the TC Series,
obtaining true reference temperatures has never been easier. Simply place the sensor to be tested inside the well and set the
temperature. The dual line display will show both the true and set temperature; once stabilization occurs, read the temperature and
recalibrate the process or sensor. Tek Know calibrators may be used for calibration of thermocouples, thermistors and RTD sensors, or
complete temperature loops.

TC150 This calibrator can generate both an ice point reference and a boiling point reference in one portable unit, making it the
optimal choice for food, dairy and biotechnology requirements.
TC400 & TC650 For higher temperature applications, in particular calibration of J and K thermocouples up to 650°C (1192°F).
TC600M This calibrator can maintain high accuracy and stability under the most severe conditions, and is therefore the
popular choice for offshore rigs and leading ship owners. As the TC600M was designed for the demanding needs of the marine
industry, it is also ideal for field use in power utilities, petro chemical processing and the automotive industry.
SC200 Temperature Calibration Software
The SC200 software package is a calibration tool which allows for fully-automatic or semi-automatic calibration, as well as a calibration
management database. This software is useful in creating and maintaining the extensive documentation required by ISO and QS
9000. It contains databases for storing calibration programs, last calibration date, and company information; as well as true values and
deviations, both in percentages and absolute values.
The software can also be used to completely automate your calibration process. Used in conjunction with our SM300 Signal Master,
you can eliminate the need to watch over your calibration while it runs. Just set it up and come back later to print out the certificate.
• Communications
Communicates with SM300 and TC calibrators using RS232 serial ports.
Drivers available for other instruments, including Beamex and Honeywell
• Storage
Stores calibrations and calibration setups
• Display
Shows on screen settling response at each calibration point. Up to 20 points
• Three modes
Can be used in manual, semi- or fully-automatic mode
