Accuracy and traceability for infrared measurements

Now it’s easy to increase your IR temperature measurement accuracy with the new 4180, 4181 Precision Infrared Calibrators from Fluke Calibration. These infrared temperature calibrators give more consistent, accurate and reliable calibrations because emissivity is radiometrically calibrated, and the target size minimizes size of source effect errors. In addition, these infrared calibrators simplify calibration because they uniquely compensate for errors caused by thermometer emissivity settings.

New accredited performance for point-and-shoot calibrations
• Calibrated radiometrically for meaningful, consistent results.
• Accredited calibration included
• Accurate, reliable performance from –15 °C to 500 °C
• Large target size of 152 mm (6 in) is required for calibrating most thermometers.
• Light instrument weight of 8.6 kg (19 lbs) makes it easy to lift and carry.
• Intuitive, easy-to-read display that indicates when temperature is stable.

Accurate enough for lab use, and rugged and portable enough to take anywhere
• Best-performing industrial heat sources (accuracy, stability, uniformity) in the world
• Immersion depth to 203 mm (8 in)
• Optional ITS-90 reference input reads PRTs to ±0.006 °C
• Temperature range from –45 °C to 700 °C

Every once in a while, a new product comes around that changes the rules. It happened when we introduced handheld dry-wells. It happened when we introduced Micro-Baths. Now we’ve combined bath-level performance with dry-well functionality and legitimate reference thermometry to create Metrology Wells.

With groundbreaking new proprietary electronics from Fluke Calibration's (patents pending), Metrology Wells let you bring lab-quality performance into whatever field environment you might work in. New analog and digital control techniques provide stability as good as ±0.005 °C. And with dual-zone control, axial (or “vertical") uniformity is as good as ±0.02 °C over a 60 mm (2.36 in) zone. (That’s 60 mm!) Such performance doesn’t exist anywhere else outside of fluid baths.

In short, there are six critical components of performance in an industrial heat source (which the European metrology community explains, for example, in the document EA-10/13): calibrated display accuracy, stability, axial (vertical) uniformity, radial (well-to-well) uniformity, impact from loading, and hysteresis. We added a seventh in the form of a legitimate reference thermometer input and created an entirely new product category: Metrology Wells.

(By the way, Metrology Wells are the only products on the market supported by published specifications addressing every performance category in the EA-10/13. Our specs aren’t just hopes or guidelines. They apply to every Metrology Well we sell.)

The three models of the new 170 Series are the new benchmark for common multimeters. All three set the standard with their combination of precision, features, ease of use, safety and reliability

Fluke’s two-pole voltage and continuity testers are built to work the way you work. They give you the best combination of safety, ease-of-use and fast answers available anywhere.

• Designed according to IEC EN 61243-3:2014 to verify the absence of voltage – even with discharged batteries.

• CAT IV 600 V, CAT III 690 V safety rating

• With 4 ways to indicate the presence of voltage – LED indicator, LCD display, audible tone or tactile feedback, always know if hazardous voltage is present (digital display on T130, T150, vibration indicator on T110, T130, T150)
