NEW Triplezone Unique temperature performance The RTC series of calibrators provides precision temperature calibration of sensors, whatever the type or format. This is accomplished through an innovative active triplezone heating technology. The RTC-700 features our new active triple-zone heating technology. Each heating zone is independently controlled for precision temperature calibration. The homogeneity in the lower part is close to that of a laboratory liquid bath. The two lower zones ensures optimum heat dissipation throughout the entire calibration zone. The upper zone compensates for heat...
