Solar portable block temperature calibrator - Giussani
The portable thermostatic calibrator Solar of Giussani has been designed to carry out laboratory and field checks of thermocouples and Pt100; it consists of a tubular vertical well with an internal ceramic pipe and an interchangeable equalising block. The equalising block, whose large size suits the external dimensions, ensures a proper heat transmission as well as optimal stability and uniformity values; its interchangeability makes it possible to test sensors of various lengths, with diameters ranging from 1 mm up to 26 mm. The block of the standard equipment has 4 holes (diameter: 7, 9, 11 and 13,5 mm); on request, further versions with different kinds of holes are available.
The Solar is equipped with a counter-current forced air cooling system, which keeps the temperature low in the upper part of the well; this system enables to check even very short probes, without heating the connecting head or the handgrip. The Solar is provided with a new PID controller, whose microprocessor ensures resolution values up to 0,01 °C as well as °C, °F and K reading; it also enables to set the up/down ramps and to memorise the operative temperature of the thermostats.
The version Solar-2I is equipped with a data acquisition card and two adjustable input devices (Pt100 3/4 wires; thermocouples: E, J, K, N, R, S) with gold-plated contacts and automatic compensation of the cold junction.
