The PIE 525Plus has all the functionalist of the PIE 422 Thermocouple Calibrator and the PIE 311 RTD Calibrator, plus a built-in Milliamp Calibrator, all in one tool.  The 525Plus features advanced diagnostics including the ability to check the health of a thermocouple sensor by simultaneously displaying the resistance of the sensor and wiring as well as measuring the temperature, as sensed by the thermocouple element.  This calibrator can power up a temperature transmitter while simulating the thermocouple or RTD sensor input.

With PIE’s patented Leak Detection, diagnose and troubleshoot loop wiring problems, ground fault and current leakage to protect instruments and technicians from potentially dangerous catastrophic failures.  The PIE 525Plus has the best accuracy and stability found in a handheld thermocouple and RTD calibrator.  Verify heat treating uniformity, survey recorders, and perform system accuracy tests. The PIE 525Plus is capable of meeting the requirements of an AMS 2750 Field Test Instrument when certified by an accredited laboratory. Track sensor deterioration over time with the unique ability to check the health of a thermocouple sensor. The PIE 525Plus will simultaneously display the resistance of the sensor and wiring while measuring the temperature being sensed by the thermocouple element.

Included is a dark blue rubber boot, four (4) “AA” alkaline batteries, certificate of calibration, deluxe hands-free carrying case (020-0211), evolution mA/V wire kit (020-0207), and evolution RTD wire kit (020-0206).

• Connect directly to the RTD inputs of smart transmitters, PLCs, DCS and multichannel recorders and verify their outputs or displays
• Troubleshoot sensor connections and find broken wires with patented technology
• Automatic indication of connections on the display for simple hookups
• Small and lightweight – fits in the palm of your hand and weighs less than a pound
• Comes protected with a rubber boot and rugged, low profile switches so you can carry it without worry
• Easy to operate, even in dark areas of the plant thanks to the backlit display
