Fluke 1586A/DSHC 120/C Super-DAQ

Overview

The Fluke 1586A/DSHC 120/C Super-DAQ is a precision temperature data acquisition system for multichannel scanning and recording. It measures thermocouples, PRTs, thermistors, DC voltage, DC current, and resistance across up to 40 isolated universal inputs with scan speeds up to 10 channels per second. The system functions as both a multi-channel data logger and precision reference thermometer for laboratory sensor calibration.

Key Features

• Best-in-class temperature measurement accuracy: PRTs ±0.005°C (with DAQ-STAQ Multiplexer), Thermocouples ±0.5°C (with High-Capacity Module), Thermistors ±0.002°C
• Up to 40 isolated universal input channels with selectable scan speed to 10 channels per second
• Four operation modes: Scan, Monitor, Measure, and Digital Multimeter (DMM)
• Real-time color trending with simultaneous plotting of up to four channels
• Current reversal technology minimizes thermoelectric effects for improved PRT/RTD accuracy
• Automated calibration control for Fluke Calibration temperature sources (dry-wells, micro-baths)
• Data storage: up to 20 MB internal non-volatile memory or external USB drive
• PC data transfer via USB or LAN for analysis in Microsoft Excel
• Administrator and user profiles for data security and test traceability
• 6 1/2 digit display resolution for DC voltage, DC current, and resistance
• Mx + B scaling and channel offset zero function
• Independent alarms with configurable upper and lower range thresholds per channel
