Product User Guide
Product Overview
The RFTCTemp2000A is two-way Wireless thermocouple based temperature data logger
with LCD. Transmits up to 2000’ maximum (outdoors unobstructed). Built-in memory also
stores data internally. Features a built-in temperature sensor for cold junction compensation
(CJC). An external thermocouple probe is required (not included). Accepts J, K, T, E, R, S, B,
and N type thermocouples.
This device measures ambient temperatures, as well as remote temperature via a thermo-
couple (sold separately), making it ideal for monitoring perishable goods, vaccine storage,
chemicals and more. Starting, stopping and downloading from the device are all performed
wirelessly using the RFC1000 wireless transceiver, allowing customer to spend less time
maintaining the data logger. Data can be provided in real time back to a central PC, or the
device may be downloaded at period intervals.
