Temperature Calibration Sources

Product catalog summary
Overview: This document discusses temperature calibration sources, specifically infrared radiators used for calibrating devices like pyrometers and thermal imaging systems. These sources can have fixed or adjustable temperatures and are traceable to national standards.
Specifications: Various models of calibration sources are available, each with specific temperature ranges from -40°C to 3000°C. Emissivity values are crucial for accurate calibration, with effective emissivity typically set to 1 for pyrometric calibration. The document also lists specifications for Transfer-Standard Pyrometers, including wavelength and temperature ranges.
Calibration Methods: Two primary methods are outlined: pyrometric calibration using a non-contact transfer-standard pyrometer, and contact thermometric calibration using a high precision RTD.
Key Features: The calibration sources feature fast heat-up times, high temperature stability, and various aperture sizes. They are suitable for both portable and stationary use, with specific dimensions and weights for each model.
Temperature Uncertainty and Warm-up Time: The document specifies temperature uncertainty and average warm-up time for each model, ensuring users understand the precision and readiness of the equipment.
Accessories and Options: A range of accessories is available, including cases, infrared radiation units, laptops with calibration software, and pyrometer adjustment bases. Options include serial communication output RS485 and cold aperture wheel assemblies.
Calibration and Verification: The document emphasizes the need for apertures of defined diameters for calibrating or verifying pyrometers and other devices. It describes a water-cooled wheel assembly with selectable diameters to reduce background temperature influence.
Product Details: Details about the Mikron Infrared Blackbody Aperture Wheels are provided, including specific aperture positions for different models.
Company Information: Advanced Energy is highlighted as a company specializing in precision power conversion, measurement, and control solutions, emphasizing innovation and customer support.
Disclaimer: Specifications are subject to change, and the company is not responsible for errors or omissions.

Temperature Calibration Sources-1

Advanced Energy TEMPERATURE CALIBRATION SOURCESHighly accurate calibration equipment for pyrometers, thermal imaging cameras, radiometers, heatflux and spectrographic measurement sytems. Calibration sources are infrared radiators with fixed or adjustable temperatures, which are used for the calibration or verification of the correct temperature indication of pyrometers, thermal imaging systems, heatflux measurement systems or spectrographic analysis systems. Depending on the model of the calibration source, single temperature points or temperature curves of an infrared measurement device can be monitored and recorded. Advanced Energy supplies a unique selection of very precise calibration sources that are traceable to national standards. Mikron® blackbodies are superior because of the emissivity values, homogeneous emission areas and a wide range of different sized apertures to adapt to the desired target area. In addition, fast heat up times and high temperature stability are guaranteed. The quality of our calibration sources is guaranteed by tests, burn-in times, and pyrometric calibrations. A certificate is provided to document the traceability to the international temperature scale ITS90.

CALIBRATION SOURCE OVERVIEW TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Temperature Range Calibration sources are available for temperature ranges from -40 to 3000°C. Emissivity The emissivity is stated depending on the calibration method used for the radiation source. Using pyrometric calibration, the effective emissivity (εeff) normally equals 1. Using thermometric contact calibration, the actual emissivity (ε) given is always below 1. Calibration Spectral Range The stated emissivity is only valid in the specified spectral range. To calibrate measurement devices in a different spectral range, a temperature correction...
