Example: For a measured value of 25 Ω at 20°C, the maximum influence of temperature is:
[0.05 Ω + (1.5 x 0.015 x 25)] / 10°C ±0.1 Ω or 0.61 Ω / 10°C ±0.1 Ω
(2) The disturbing current at 50/60 Hz maximum is approximately 3.5 A for low loop resistance values (< 10 Ω ).
Above approximately 40 V (at 50/60 Hz) in the measuring loop, the NOISE symbol comes on..
