Dry well calibrators are the perfect solutions to use in laboratories. They are accurate, easy to use, inexpensive and thier portability allows them to be used in a variety of settings.
The name "dry block" refers to the metal block inside the calibrator that holds the temperature sensor, while its accuracy is being determined. The Mensor CTD9100-375 is the perfect example of a dry block temperature calibrator.
Automation in temperature calibration can reduce the number of steps that is taken in a normal calibration of a RTD, thermocouple or thermistor.
What is the minimum immersion depth with dry well calibrators?
The minimum immersion depth for dry well calibrators is driven by the axial gradient, since warm air rises from the bottom of the calibrator. The minimum is usually 2.75 inches (70 mm). If this depth cannot be reached, an external reference thermom ...
moreFor the insert of a dry well calibrator, how large should the bore diameter be?
The diameter of a test item determines the size of the drilled bore. The bore diameter should be as small as possible after taking into account the thermal expansion of the test item. This is because the air gap between the thermometer and the bore ...
