Fluke 7340 Calibration Bath
June 6, 2024 - Vista, California - Axiom Test Equipment, an electronic test equipment rental and
sales company has published a new blog post that covers how
temperature
calibration baths provide a dependable means of calibrating temperature sensors
of different shapes and sizes, with capabilities of many at one time.
Often simply called calibration baths, temperature calibration baths are not
just tanks for temperature-controlled fluids. They are integrated systems
consisting of a stainless-steel tank, a condensing coil and cooling plate, a
heater, propeller, and stirring motor. These components combine to maintain
selected fluids within the tank at tightly controlled temperatures across a wide
temperature range.
When evaluating temperature calibration baths, parameters for comparison
include the volume, size, and weight of the bath, its total temperature range,
power consumption, heating and cooling times, and stability. In use, calibration
baths are usually set to one temperature at which they calibrate probes or UUTs.
With a temperature-controlled fluid, they are better than a dry well when
calibrating multiple probes, even when the probes differ in size or type.
Temperature calibration baths are capable of wide temperature ranges. To learn
more about how to find the right unit for your project read the full blog post

Temperature is a significant variable for many electronic devices and must be
monitored, but it must be done accurately. To serve that purpose, temperature
calibration baths provide a dependable means of calibrating temperature sensors
of different shapes and sizes, often many at one time. Temperature sensors are
used in many markets, including aerospace and defense (A&D), automotive,
environmental monitoring, healthcare, and testing. Calibration baths themselves
come in many shapes and sizes and selecting the optimum bath requires a basic
understanding of how a temperature calibration bath works and how its
specifications can be used to compare different models. Whether hot, cold, or
across wide temperature ranges, an application, and its unit under test (UUT)
will establish the required parameter limits for a temperature calibration bath,
such as the bath volume, the type of fluid in the bath, and the adjustable
temperature range. Often simply called calibration baths, temperature
calibration baths are not just tanks for temperature-controlled fluids. They are
integrated systems consisting of a stainless-steel tank, a condensing coil and
cooling plate, a heater, propeller, and stirring motor. These components combine
to maintain selected fluids within the tank at tightly controlled temperatures
across a wide temperature range. By immersing temperature probes and other UUTs
in the fluid at a single temperature or any number of temperatures within the
calibration bath’s temperature range, the probes and UUTs can be calibrated and
tested at precisely known and stable temperatures.
When evaluating temperature calibration baths, parameters for comparison
include the volume, size, and weight of the bath, its total temperature range,
power consumption, heating and cooling times, and stability and uniformity of a
set temperature. In use, calibration baths are usually set to one temperature at
which they calibrate probes or UUTs. With a temperature-controlled fluid, they
are better than a dry well when calibrating multiple probes, even when the
probes differ in size or type. Probe clamps can be used to safely hold probes or
UUTs in place during a temperature calibration, without impacting the accuracy
of the calibration. The number of probes or UUTs being calibrated at one time
will affect the temperature stabilization time of a calibration bath when
changing temperatures, with more time needed to stabilize the temperature of the
calibration bath when more probes are being tested at the same time. Temperature
calibration baths are capable of wide temperature ranges, with the best
calibration results usually achieved when starting at the highest temperatures
and progressing to the lowest temperatures.

RF Cafe began life in 1996 as "RF Tools" in an AOL screen name web space totaling
2 MB. Its primary purpose was to provide me with ready access to commonly needed
formulas and reference material while performing my work as an RF system and circuit
design engineer. The World Wide Web (Internet) was largely an unknown entity at
the time and bandwidth was a scarce commodity. Dial-up modems blazed along at 14.4 kbps
while tying up your telephone line, and a lady's voice announced "You've Got Mail"
when a new message arrived...
