for the PASCO

Model CI-6527A

Thermistor Sensor

012-08463B

Introduction

The CI-6527A Thermistor Sensor is used for

converting resistance measurements to temperature.

When used with a ScienceWorkshop® interface and

DataStudio software (version 1.8.5 or later), the

sensor allows you to directly measure the temperature

or simultaneously view both resistance and

temperature measurements in one graph.

The sensor is a two-thermistor circuit built into one

sensor case. Thermistors are resistors that change

resistance as their temperature changes. One

themistor circuit is used with PASCO 10K thermistors

that have a 3.5 mm male stereo jack.

The other thermistor circuit is 100K ohms and is used

with a BNC jack. The 100K circuit is designed for

use with a 100K thermistor, like that installed in the

PASCO Mechanical Equivalent of Heat Apparatus

(TD-8551A) or the Thermal Expansion Apparatus

(TD-8558A).

The stereo-to-dual banana plug cable is used to

connect the 10K thermister to apparatus requiring two

banana plugs such as the comupter-based Thermal

Expansion Apparatus (TD-8579A).

Applications

10K and 100K thermistors (i.e. TD-8579, TD-

8580, etc.)
