Key Features of the RTCt Temperature Calibrator:

Enhanced Display and Intuitive Touchscreen
The RTCt features a large, vibrant main display and a new touchscreen interface. Combined with customization options, this updated UI allows you to optimize your calibration tasks, reducing setup time and simplifying operations.

Expanded Connectivity for Remote Access
In addition to USB and Ethernet connections, the RTCt now includes Wi-Fi connectivity, enabling remote control from anywhere. Whether you're in another room or monitoring from a distance, the RTCt's connectivity options ensure you can handle calibrations without needing to be onsite, ideal for hard-to-access or sensitive locations.

Dual Sensor Inputs for Increased Efficiency
Now equipped with two sensor input ports, the RTCt enables simultaneous calibration of multiple sensors. This powerful feature increases efficiency, helping you complete complex calibrations quickly and accurately.

Auto-Adjusting Graph Mode
The RTCt features an industry first (patent pending) real-time graphing feature that auto adjusts based on the calibration stage and temperature settings. It starts with an overview graph of the current temperature compared to a stability line, then once calibration stability is met, the RTCt changes to a relative graph showing even the smallest deviations.

Upgraded Specifications and Functionality
Designed with professionals in mind, the RTCt offers enhanced features:

Wider Temperature Range: Expanded range down to -35°C, ideal for extreme applications.
Automated Multi-Run Switch: Perform up to 5 automated temperature switch runs, versus the single run available in the previous model.
Rate Control in All Modes: Unlike the RTC, which limited this function to switch test mode, the RTCt includes rate control in all modes, ensuring precise temperature adjustments.
User-Defined Preset Temperatures: Save up to 6 preset temperatures for faster calibration across frequent tasks, a feature absent in the RTC.
Graphical Stability Monitoring: With a graphical display for stability and DLC monitoring, the RTCt offers real-time insights at a glance, adding visual clarity to the numerical displays of the RTC.
Customizable Interface and Memories: Tailor the interface and name your calibration settings for easy access, making the RTCt adaptable to diverse use cases.

Achieve Precision and Flexibility with the RTCt
Engineered for excellence, the RTCt is the ultimate tool in temperature calibration, combining advanced technology and customizability for unmatched control and accuracy. Experience the new standard in calibration with the RTCt – designed to meet the high demands of today's industry.
