Comments Measuring Temperature with the HP El326B/El411B Multimeters. The HP E1326B/E1411B Multimeters can directly measure channels of single or multiple multiplexer modules. The multimeter automatically calculates the correct temperature for the specific thermistor or thermocouple type used. For more information, see the HP E1326B/E1411B Multimeter User’s Manual.

Thermocouple Compensated Measurements. The HP E1353A FET Multiplexer makes thermocouple compensated measurements. Thermocouple compensation accounts for the temperature inside the multiplexer terminal module, which can affect the thermocouple reading. Thermocouple compensated measurements are made with the HP E1326B/E1411B. More information on these types of measurements can be found in Hewlett-Packard Application Note 290, Practical Temperature Measurements.

High-Speed Temperature Measurements. High-speed temperature measurements can be made by measuring the thermocouple voltage, compensating the reading, and then converting the voltage to a temperature. The instrument configuration used for these types of measurements may include an E1326B/E1411B Multimeter and a FET multiplexer switchbox, or an external voltmeter used with the FET switchbox. The procedure for these types of measurements is:

1.Measure the resistance of the thermistor (channel 93) on the multiplexer terminal module (CLOSe(@cc93)).

2.Measure the thermocouple voltage on the multiplexer channel.

3.Convert the thermistor resistance to a temperature using the following equation:

t = 1.0 / (A + B * lnr + C * (lnr)3)calculate temperature

t = t - 273.15

convert Kelvin to Centigrade

where:

A = 0.00128463

B = 0.00023625

C = 9.2697E-8

lnr = natural log of the measured thermistor resistance

A, B, and C are the curve-fitting constants for the multiplexer’s 5K thermistor.

4.Convert the thermistor temperature (step 3) to a voltage using the reference table for the type of thermocouple used.

5.Subtract the voltage (step 4) from the thermocouple voltage measured in step 2. Convert the difference between the voltages to a temperature, again using the reference table for the type of thermocouple used.

6.Add the temperature (step 5) to the thermistor temperature computed in step 3 to obtain the result of the thermocouple measurement.
