Regular calibration of temperature sensors is crucial, as they are exposed to a variety of mechanical, thermal and chemical stresses that can lead to drift over time. This drift can cause the measured temperature to deviate from the actual temperature. Through regular calibration, the differences between the actual and measured temperature can be determined, making the specific drift behaviour visible. Dry-block calibrators are effective instruments for checking and calibrating a wide range of temperature measuring devices and temperature sensors.
The calibrator / simulator is used to calibrate temperature sensors such as Pt100, Pt1000 and many other temperature sensors. The dry block function offers a practical solution for calibrating temperature sensors in the laboratory and in the field. The use of the correct "transition sleeve" ensures optimum thermal coupling between the dry block and the test item to be calibrated.
The versatility of the calibration insert makes it possible to calibrate a wide range of straight temperature sensors with different lengths and diameters with the calibrator / simulator. This significantly increases the flexibility and applicability of the dry block. Another advantage of the dry block function is that it covers the entire temperature range without having to change the calibration medium. This significantly reduces the effort for the user, as no special precautions need to be taken for different viscosities, flash points or outgassing.
Overall, the calibrator / simulator offers an efficient and user-friendly method for calibrating temperature sensors, both in the laboratory and in field applications.
