Fluke has introduced the 9190A Ultra-Cool Field Metrology Well, a small, lightweight, and accurate dry-block calibrator with excellent stability.
The 9190A is ideal for pharmaceutical, biomedical and food processing applications that demand strict quality control and regulatory process compliance, including on-location validation and calibration of RTDs, thermocouples, thermometers, and other temperature sensors. It conforms to Euramet cg-13 guidelines for best measurement practices for temperature dry-block calibrators. This ensures that the specifications for accuracy, stability, axial (vertical) uniformity, radial (well-to-well) uniformity, loading, and hysteresis have been thoroughly and carefully defined and tested.
The device has a wide temperature range (-95 to140°C) to cover the coldest and warmest temperatures required in pharmaceutical, biomedical and food processing applications, operating at ultra-cold temperatures not typically available with a calibration bath. The 9190A uses no bath fluids, keeping clean rooms clean, making it easier to transport, and delivering faster heating/cooling rates.
The 9190A with ‘process’ option features 4-20 mA connectors, a reference thermometer input, 4-wire PRT/RTD input and reference sensor control to minimise the effects of the axial gradient when a reference PRT is aligned with short sensors.
