I have a cryostat with two CERNOX sensors in it, one was apparently disconnected long ago, but I now need to measure the temperature on that stage. None of the calibration curves loaded into my temperature controller work for it, they all read TOVER at room temp. I don't know the serial number, it doesn't appear to be on the package (CU style). The controller has calibration curves for sensors with serial numbers X55408 thru X55411 loaded onto it, so the serial number is probably near that number. The website to download calibration curve data doesn't contain the data for those serial numbers, so I can't just try ones near there. The resistance at room temp (292.32 K according to my other CERNOX sensor) is 45.123 Ohm. I don't need very high accuracy, I'd be happy to know the difference between 50 K and 55 K, so maybe 2 K accuracy would be reasonable if possible.
Aside from doing a calibration myself, can I get 2 K accuracy out of this somehow?

Regretfully, without a serial number, there is no way I can tell you what the calibration data would be. The sensor with serial number X55408 was one of 65 sensors shipped on the same order, therefore, the sensor you have in your cryostat can be any one of them. I recommend you contact the company who made the cryostat to see if they can provide the sensor serial numbers that were installed in that system.
I do not find any reference to serial number X55411 in our system and the calibration data for serial number X55408 shows that it would have a resistance between 190 to 195 ohms at room temperature, therefore, the sensor you are measuring is not the same as the serial numbers that are installed in your controller.
