Mastech MS6512A Single-Channel Contact Thermometer

Description

The Mastech MS6512A is a single-channel contact thermometer used for measuring temperatures using either a K-type or J-type thermocouple. Unlike its B and C series counterparts, the MS6512A is not equipped with data logging capabilities. It is well-suited for industrial, HVAC/R, and laboratory applications that require a simple, direct measurement of temperature.

Key Features

• Single-channel measurement: The device is designed to take temperature readings from a single thermocouple probe at a time.
• Thermocouple compatibility: It supports both K and J-type thermocouples, allowing for measurements across a broad temperature range.
• High-speed sampling: It has a sampling rate of 1 time per second for consistent readings.
• Large display: Features a user-friendly panel with a large 53mm x 44mm screen for clear viewing of results.
• Data hold function: Includes a data hold feature to freeze the current measurement on the display for easy recording.
• MAX/MIN readings: Captures and displays the maximum and minimum recorded temperatures.
• Upper/lower limit alarms: Allows users to set customizable temperature alarms. Default values are 1300°C for the upper limit and -200°C for the lower limit.
• Compensation function: Features an adjustable compensation function (ADJ) to correct for probe error.
• Auto power-off: Automatically turns off after 15 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life, though this can be manually canceled.
• Power source: Runs on three 1.5V AAA (LR06) batteries and can also be powered by a USB micro interface.
