The PT Compact USB is an additional member of the tecsis PT Compact series. The measuring range can be programmed according to the customers demands with especially developed professional software. The communication between the industrial thermometer and a PC is done via an USB connection. Programming-Kits are not needed.

There are two models of the PT Compact USB. The standard model for temperatures from –50°C up to +200°C and a high temperature model for temperatures up to +600°C, which includes a 100 mm neck tube. The output signal of the PT Compact USB is an analogue 4…20 mA signal.

In order to program the measuring range, it is necessary to remove the measuring insert from the housing. The USB-interface is placed directly on the electronic board of the thermometer.

Precautions have to be taken to avoid ESD-damages, while programming the electronics. You do not have to remove the thermowell of the PT Compact, in order to program the range, thus you do not have to stop your process.
