How to calibrate a temperature switch automatically

Temperature switches are commonly used in various industrial applications to control specific functions. As with any measuring instrument, they need to be calibrated regularly to ensure they are working accurately and reliably – lack of calibration, or inaccurate calibration, can have serious consequences.

Calibrating a temperature switch is different from calibrating a temperature sensor or transmitter, for example. In this video, Sebastian will step-by-step show you how to automatically calibrate a temperature switch and sensor. We hope you will find it useful!

The Beamex MC6-T is an extremely versatile portable automated temperature calibration system. It combines a state-of-the-art temperature dry-block with Beamex MC6 multifunction process calibrator and communicator technology.
