The Practical Instrument Electronics’ Model 520/521 Thermocouple Simulators simulate a standard thermocouple curve over the entire industrial temperature range. Choose between eight standard T/C types or millivolts. The Model 520 can also be supplied with a custom thermocouple curve and range for your specific application. Contact the factory for details.

The Model 520/521 sources precise temperatures for inputs to all types of instruments such as transmitters, recorders, controllers, alarms, data acquisition, and computer systems. The Model 521 provides a miniature T/C connector and the Model 520 provides 18” extension wire. Both are internally cold-junction compensated for changes in ambient temperature. The PIE Model 520/521 offers the highest performance and functions in its class by exceeding the accuracy and functions of many higher priced thermocouple calibrators.

The EZ-Check function allows the user to store three output temperatures for real convenience. This will save time for repetitive calibrations by instantly recalling the three stored temperature values. Three output settings can be stored, and all settings are saved, even with the power off.

The low cost PIE Model 520/521 is an “easy as PIE” to use thermocouple source for checkout and calibration of all thermocouple instruments in the field, shop or control room.
