Additel Reference Thermometer Readouts and AccuMac Probes

In temperature calibration, the reference is only as good as the chain behind it: the probe, the readout, and the way the two are matched. A precise PRT read by the wrong instrument, or a readout paired with a probe outside its range, adds uncertainty exactly where the calibration is supposed to remove it.

Additel builds both halves of that chain: reference thermometer readouts and AccuMac reference probes. AV-TEK Consulting supplies the range with selection support and NIST-traceable calibration.

Additel 286 Multifunction Reference Thermometer Readout

The Additel 286 combines a high-end reference thermometer, a data acquisition system, and an 8.5 digit multimeter in one instrument. It scans and records up to 82 channels at 10 channels per second, so a single unit can handle field calibrations and uniformity studies, and serve in the lab as a precision thermometer and 8.5 digit multimeter.

Where it fits: temperature uniformity surveys of chambers, furnaces, and baths, and multi-sensor calibrations where channel count and logging speed matter.

Additel 282 Dual-Channel Reference Thermometer Readout

The Additel 282 brings reference-grade temperature measurement to a handheld format. Its two analog channels are designed for comparison measurements, such as calibrating a sensor under test against a reference probe, and Additel positions its accuracy on par with laboratory-grade thermometers.

AccuMac Reference Probes

The readout is only half of the measurement. AccuMac probes cover reference thermocouples, PRTs, and SPRTs across different temperature ranges:

  • AccuMac AM1210: reference standard Type S thermocouple (0 °C to 1300 °C)
  • AccuMac AM1612: full immersion PRT (-200 °C to 160 °C)
  • AccuMac AM1640/1660: precision industrial PRTs (-200 °C to 670 °C)
  • AccuMac AM1710: secondary reference PRT (-40 °C to 160 °C)
  • AccuMac AM1730: secondary reference PRT (-200 °C to 420 °C)
  • AccuMac AM1751: secondary reference PRT (-200 °C to 670 °C)
  • AccuMac AM1760/1762: secondary SPRTs (-200 °C to 670 °C)

How AV-TEK Consulting Supports Your Calibration

Matching readout, probe type, and temperature range to your procedure is where most of the uncertainty is decided. AV-TEK Consulting helps select the right combination, quotes the complete setup, and provides NIST-traceable calibration so your reference standards stay traceable.

FAQ

What is the difference between the Additel 286 and the Additel 282?

The ADT286 is a multifunction readout with data acquisition: it scans and records up to 82 channels at 10 channels per second and includes an 8.5 digit multimeter. The ADT282 is a handheld dual-channel readout designed for comparison measurements.

Which AccuMac probe covers the highest temperatures?

The AM1210 Type S thermocouple covers 0 °C to 1300 °C. Among the PRTs and SPRTs, the AM1640/1660, AM1751, and AM1760/1762 cover -200 °C to 670 °C.

Can the Additel 286 be used for uniformity studies?

Yes. With up to 82 channels scanned at 10 channels per second, the ADT286 is designed for field calibrations and uniformity studies.

Can AV-TEK calibrate these instruments?

Yes. AV-TEK Consulting provides NIST-traceable calibration for reference readouts and probes.
