Owner manual

• Easy to use
With the PIECAL 322 you can check & calibrate all your
thermocouple instruments and measure thermocouple sensors.
Plug in any thermocouple via a miniature thermocouple jack.
• Take it into the shop, plant or field
Carry it without worry - it comes protected with a rubber boot and
rugged, low profile switch. Easy to operate even in the dark areas
of the plant with the backlit display.
• Calibrate directly in temperature (°C & °F)
Stop carrying around a millivolt source and thermocouple tables.
The PIECAL 322 works with the thermocouples you use including
types J, K, T, and E. Easily set any value quickly to within 0.1° with
the adjustable digital potentiometer “DIAL” plus store any three
temperatures for instant recall with the EZ-CHECK™ switch. Or
calibrate from -13.999 to +80.000 mV.
• Fast calibration with automatic output stepping
Choose between 2, 3, 5, 11 and 21 steps to automatically increment
the output in 100%, 50%, 25%, 10% or 5% of span. Select the step
time to match your system from 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 and 60
seconds.
• Compatible with ALL process instruments
No competitor’s calibrator is compatible with as many process
instruments! Connect directly to the thermocouple inputs of smart
transmitters, PLCs, DCS and multichannel recorders and verify
their outputs or displays. Works with older instruments and newer
multichannel instruments that switch between input channels.
• Measure thermocouple sensors
Trouble shoot sensor connections and find broken wires or corroded connections. Connect your thermocouple
with a miniature thermocouple connector and the PIECAL 322 measures the probe in degrees C or F.
• Evolutionary design
PIECAL Calibrators are designed and built by members of the same team that designed and built the calibrators
manufactured by Fluke* under the Altek* label. The PIECAL 322 improves upon other brands by including a rubber
boot, tilt stand, backlit display with larger digits, rugged switches and a battery compartment for fast battery
changes.
