OVERVIEW of the high-temperature furnaceThe Additel ADT875-1210 and ADT878-1210 calibration furnaces are designed for thermocouple calibration across a working range of 100 °C to 1210 °C. They deliver high stability and uniformity, feature interchangeable metal inserts and can be supplied with an optional Process Calibrator (PC) for multi-channel readings, task documentation and HART communication.
Key features- Temperature range: 100 °C to 1210 °C
- Two models: ADT875 (standard) and ADT878 (reference)
- Display accuracy (varies by model and temperature): e.g. ADT878 ±1.5 °C at 1210 °C (see detailed specs)
- Stability: ±0.1 °C
- Patented Advanced Adaptive Control multizone temperature control with 3-zone control and forced-air technology
- Interchangeable metal inserts (deep XR inserts 138 mm and short XS inserts 115 mm for ADT875)
- Process Calibrator (PC) option: multi-channel readings (reference + up to 4 test channels), mA/voltage measurements, switch tests, 24 V DC loop powering, task logging, screen snapshots and HART communication
- 6.5" color touchscreen; USB A, USB B, RJ45, WiFi, Bluetooth communications
- Factory ISO 17025 accredited calibration provided
- Portable, robust and fast heat-up
Process control and optionsThe Process Calibrator (PC) option includes Additel's patented Quick-Push connectors compatible with most TC terminations. It allows measuring one reference thermocouple plus up to four UUT channels, performing switch tests, powering 24 V loops, recording tasks (as found / as left) and using HART for transmitter calibration. Snapshot function captures the display and logs channels with automatic step and ramp profiles.
