Fluke has announced the launch of the new Fluke 9140 series of field metrology wells, which are lightweight, packed with functionality and easy to use. Building on the success of the Fluke 9170 series metrology wells; the new 914X Series extend high performance portable temperature calibration to the industrial process environment by maximising portability, speed, and functionality with little compromise to metrology performance.
Field metrology wells are lightweight, small, and quick to reach temperature set points, yet they are stable, uniform, and accurate. These industrial temperature loop calibrators are perfect for performing transmitter loop calibrations, comparison calibrations, or simple checks of thermocouple sensors. With the 'process' option, there is no need to carry additional tools into the field. The optional built-in two-channel readout measures resistance, voltage, and 4-20 mA current with 24 V loop power. It also has on-board documentation. Combined, the three models (9142, 9143, and 9144 - each with a 'process' option) cover the wide range of -25°C to 660°C.
Features and benefits:
* Lightweight, portable, and fast.
* Cool to -25°C in 15 minutes and heat to 660°C in 15 minutes.
* Built-in two-channel readout for PRT, RTD, thermocouple, 4-20 mA current.
* True reference thermometry with accuracy to ±0,02°C.
* On-board automation and documentation.
* Metrology performance in accuracy, stability, uniformity and loading.
