The JOFRA RTC-157 provides precision
temperature calibration of sensors, whatever the type or format. This is
accomplished through an innovative active dual-zone heating technology.
The JOFRA RTC157 features our well-known active 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 extra insulation of
sensors-under-test and makes it possible to calibrate liquid-filled and
other mechanical sensors.
To bring well documented active dual-zone
technology to an even higher level, the patent pending new DLC system
was developed. This newly developed unique feature makes it possible
to perform top calibration specifications without being affected by the
actual load e.g. many sensors or very big sensors. A new DLC sensor,
Dynamic Load Compensation sensor, has been specially developed for this
purpose. The RTC calibrator features the active dual zone temperature
control which improves the homogeneity in the well by adjusting the
temperature in the top of the well to the same temperature as in the
bottom. The dual zone keeps this difference at a minimum.
Another new RTC feature is the USB connection that facilitates easy
communication with JOFRACAL. The USB connection also supports easy
download of future firmware upgrades. The new USB connection provides
fast and easy access to all laptops without the need of RS-232 to USB
converters.
Two special multi-hole insert kits have been
developed to comply with calibration of almost any sensor diameter
with-out having to buy numerous inserts.
The RTC-157 calibrator
has an increased heating and cooling speed compared to all other
calibrators. Heating and cooling speed has been increased by up to 20%.
The implication is savings in both production downtime and general
calibration costs.
