DescriptionThe DTZ-4XXBG surface probe calibrators are designed for the calibration of a wide range of surface sensors (surface thermocouples, thermistors, thin-film sensors, surface RTDs, ribbon sensors, L-shaped sensors, etc.). Each calibrator consists of a controller and a heated block providing rapid temperature setup, fast and stable heating, multi-segment PID control and an RS-232 interface. With minor modifications these calibrators can be converted into blackbody sources for infrared thermal camera calibration.
Key features- Available temperature ranges: DTZ-400BG 35–400 °C, DTZ-450BG 50–500 °C, DTZ-460BG 50–600 °C.
- Calibration plate diameter: 130 mm, suitable for sensors of varied shapes and sizes.
- High accuracy: ≤ ±0.5 °C at 200 °C.
- Excellent stability: e.g. ±0.3 °C / 10 min (@300 °C).
- High display resolution: 0.01 °C.
- Multi-segment PID control for high/medium/low temperature zones with minimal overshoot.
- Surface finished with aerospace-grade composite: high hardness, wear resistance and high thermal conductivity.
- Grooved design for precise positioning of L-shaped sensors.
- Insertion port for a reference probe under the center of the surface (precision RTD standard).
- RS-232 communication interface for PC connection.
- Portable and compact: total mass 12 kg.
