Page 9 of 34 Hyperion Drago Iss 05 08 13 ISUT CH _ INTRODUCTION Stirred liquid baths are suitable for temperature sensors of all types shapes and sizes Accuracies are much greater than those from Dry Blocks alone with suitable reference thermometers performance of up to 0 005 C is achievable In addition to use as liquid bath accessories these products are part of the 5 6 range allowing unprecedented flexibility for the calibration of temperature sensors The 5 6 range may be used with the following options As a Metal Block Bath As a Stirred Liquid Bath As a Stirred Ice Bath A Black Body Source A Surface Sensor Calibrator An 5 90 Fixed Point Apparatus Qv Ur cR GUN COMPARISON CALIBRATION By definition one compares industrial thermometers to a calibrated standard There are 3 methods commonly used Basic Using the controller as the calibrated standard this method means that the complete bath is calibrated by comparing the controller reading to a calibrated standard placed in the bath This is a common method but is unsafe since the control sensor is a inaccessible b in the wrong place to give correct temperature of the insert For these reasons it fails to satisfy ISO9000 and gives large uncertainties Site or Self Contained Calibrators In these an indicator and external calibrated sensor are used to measure the temperature of the calibration volume This arrangement gives goo2. APPRECIATE THE HAZARDS WHICH MAY BE ASSOCIATED WITH AND THE PRECAUTIONS TO BE TAKEN WITH SUCH EQUIPMENT Page 7 of 34 Hyperion Drago Iss 05 08 13 ISUT CH _ DO S AND DON TS DO NOT handle the accessories when they are very hot or very cold DO NOT place hot or cold accessories back in the carrying case DO NOT use the pocket designed for the black body source sensor to measure the temperature of the insert stirred liquid bath or surface calibrator DO use that pocket for pre warming pre cooling or storage DO NOT spill liquids inside the 5 6 DO NOT use liquids outside their recommended temperature range DO NOT use viscous liquids the stirring will be restricted and larger gradients will occur DO NOT mix liquids If you are using different liquids make sure the calibrator is completely clean and dry before adding another liquid DO NOT worry if the black anodising gets discoloured or scratched We can supply some special black touch up paint DO NOT rely on the controller to tell you the temperature of the insert or stirred liquid bath Its job is only to provide an isothermal volume It is the calibrated working standard that is used to measure actual temperature DO calibrate very large sensors in the Isocal 6 unless you can accept large immersion errors We have larger products for larger sensors DO NOT try to straighten the working standard it is deliberately bent so that it does not interfer
