The Ametek ATC-320B features the unique dual-zone heating block -
designed for optimum performance and superior temperature homogeneity
throughout the block. This new design has a performance equivalent to a
liquid temperature bath. The ATC-157 features the widest temperature
range for a cooling dry-block on the market today.
Each ATC dry-block calibrator may be used to perform fully automatic
calibration routines without using an external computer. Use the
computer for full upload and download capabilities. Units may also be
supplied with inputs for external reference sensors and for
sensors-under-test. All ATC calibrators feature RS232 serial
communication and standard delivery also includes the JOFRACAL
calibration PC software.

Unique temperature performance
The ATC series of calibrators provide precision tempera-ture calibration
of sensors; whatever the type or format. This is accomplished through an
innovative dual-zone heating technology.
The Ametek ATC-320B features a dual-zone heating technology. Each heating
zone is independently controlled for precision temperature calibration.
The homogeneity in the lower part is close to that of a laboratory
liquid bath. The lower zone ensures optimum heat dissipation throughout
the entire calibration zone. The upper zone compensates for heat loss
from the sensor-under-test and from the open top. This design also
eliminates the need for insulation of the sensors-under-test and makes
it possible to calibrate liquid-filled and other mechanical sensors.
Highest accuracy
The ATC320B calibrators may be supplied with a built-in reference
thermometer for use with an external sensor. This feature allows one
instrument to provide the freedom and flexibility to perform
calibrations at the process site while maintaining a high accuracy.
A special 90° angled external reference sensor has been designed to
accommodate sensors with a transmitter head, top connector or similar
arrangement.
The user can decide whether to read the built-in reference sensor or the
more accurate angled reference sensor from the calibrator’s large,
easy-to-read LCD display. The external sensor and the internal sensor
are independent of one another. Downloading of reference sensor
linearization is done via a personal computer.
Auto-stepping
Up to 20 different temperature steps may be programmed including the
hold time for each step. Upon completion of an auto step routine, the
user can easily read the results for the sensor-under-test. Up to five
(5) auto step results are stored.
Easy-to-use, intuitive operation
All instrument settings can be performed from the front panel. The
heat source is positioned away from the panel which helps protect the
operator.
The ATC-320B keyboard is equipped with five, positive feedback function keys.
They correspond to the text in the display and change functionality
based on instrument operations. There are also dedicated function keys
with permanent functions.
The easy-to-read, backlit display is large with a high contrast that is
readable even in high ambient light conditions. The display is easily
read from all angles and from a distance without parallax problems. The
display also features icons which help identifying instrument conditions
and operational steps, making it more intuitive to work with.
SET-Follows-TRUE
The “SET-Follows TRUE” makes the
instrument tune in until the temperature of the external reference
“TRUE” meets the desired “SET” temperature. This is used when it is
critical that the temperature of the calibration zone matches the
desired temperature when measured with accurate external reference
sensors. This feature is ideal when calibrating gas correctors or other
custody transfer applications. It is also extremely useful to
calculation procedures.
Reading of sensor-under-test
The ATC320B is equipped with built-in converters (inputs)
that enables measurement of virtually any type of temperature sensor
including:
- thermostats
- resistance thermometers (RTD)
- thermocouples (TC)
- transmitters
- milliamps (mA)
- voltage (V)
The ATC calibrators can be user-programmed for completely automated
temperature calibrations. Once the unit is programmed, the instrument
operates itself by performing the configured calibration routine. All
calibration data is stored and available for uploading and generating
exact calibration certificates or reports.
Switch test
Users may perform a thermoswitch test and find “Open”, “Closed” and
the hysteresis (dead band) automatically. The instrument retains the
last five tests.
Enhanced stability
A stability indicator shows when the ATC calibrator has reached the
desired temperature and is stable. The user may change the stability
criteria, external reference and the sensor-under-test quickly and
simply. The stability criteria is the user’s security for a correct
calibration. A count-down timer is displayed next to the temperature
read-out.
Instrument setups
The ATC-320B allows the user to store up to nine (9) complete
instrument setups. You may store all sorts of information including
temperature units, stability criteria, use of external reference sensor,
resolution, sensor-under-test (SUT), conversion to temperature, display
contrast, etc. The setup may be recalled at any time.
Maximum temperature
From the setup menu, the user can select the maximum temperature
limit for the calibrator. This function prevents damage to the
sensor-under-test caused by the application of excessive temperatures.
The feature also aids in reducing drift resulting from extended periods
of exposures to high temperatures. This feature can be locked with an
access code.

JOFRACAL Calibration Software
The JOFRACAL calibration software ensures easy calibration of RTD´s,
thermocouples, transmitters, thermoswitches, pressure gauges and
pressure switches. JOFRACAL can be used with Ametek DPC-500, APC, CPC
and IPI pres-sure calibrators, all Ametek temperature calibrators, as
well as Ametek AMC900, ASC300 multi signal calibrator and ASM-800
signal multi scanner.

JOFRACAL calibration software may also be used for
manual calibrations, as it can be set up to accept manual entry of
calibration data together with other liquid baths, ice points or
dry-block heat sources. The calibration data collected may be stored
on a PC for later recall or analysis. The ITC calibrator stores the
calibration procedure and may be taken out to the process site
without using a personal computer.
This then allows the
ATC320B to:
-
Operate as a stand-alone instrument, using advanced calibration
routines without the assistance of a personal computer on site;
-
Prevent unauthorized changes to a calibration routine. Personnel who
are not authorized to alter a calibration routine cannot do so.
Calibration of up to 24 sensors with Ametek ASM
Using the Ametek ITC series together with the ASM Advanced Signal
Multi-scanner offers a great time-saving automatic solution to calibrate
multiple temperature sensors at the same time.
The ASM series is an eight channel scanner controlled by JOFRACAL
software on a PC. Up to 3 ASM units can be stacked to calibrate up to 24
sensors at the same time. It can handle signals from 2-, 3- and 4 wire
RTD’s, TC’s, transmitters, thermisters, temperature switches and
voltage.
