8 Calibration Pr ocedure The 1504 uses a three-point calibration scheme with a quadrati c polynomial correction function to maintain the accura c y of its resistance measurement. The three calibration poin ts are at 0 Ω ,1 0k Ω , and 100 k Ω . Three calibr ation pa - rameters determine the correction function: CAL0, CAL10, and CAL100. The CAL0 p[...]

8.2 Calibration Procedure Calibration requires four-wire 10 k Ω and 100 k Ω resistors of 25 ppm uncer - tainty and a 0 Ω resistor (or short). For v erification, 4 k Ω a n d4 0k Ω resistors of 25 ppm uncertainty , and a 1 M Ω resistor of 75 ppm uncert ainty are also re - quired. The resistors are connected to the input the same w ay probes are[...]

9 Maintenance • The calibration instrument has been designed with the utmost care. Ease of operation and simplicity of maintenance have been a central theme in the product development. Therefore, with proper care the instrument should require very little maintenance. A void operating the instrument in an oily , wet, dirty , or dusty environments.[...]

• Stem conduction error . The problem may be that the actual temperature of the sensor is not what you expect. This is often the result of stem con - duction where heat flowing through the stem of the probe to ambient af - fects the temperature of the probe.
