Fluke's Micro-Baths are the world's first completely portable baths built specifically for temperature calibration work. And now we've added a third model, the 7103, for calibrations at temperatures as low as -30 C.
Micro-Baths can be used anywhere for any type of sensor. The Model 6102 weighs less than 10 pounds, with the fluid. It's lighter and smaller than most dry-wells, has a spill-proof lid, and is easier to carry than your lunch. You can take it where you need to go without carts or excessive effort. Micro-Baths can even be transported with the fluid in them.
Wherever you go with your Micro-Bath, you can count on its performance. Each model is stable to +/-0.03 C or better, depending on the fluid you use. Uniformity is +/-0.02 C or better for low uncertainties using a reference thermometer. Display accuracy has been improved to +/-0.25 C for quick calibrations without a reference thermometer. In short, you get the stability and precision of a liquid bath in a dry-well-sized package. Don't be fooled by competitors who place a can of oil inside a dry-well and call it a bath. Fluke Micro-Baths are maximized for true fluid-bath performance.
With a 1.9-inch-diameter, 5.5-inch-deep tank, a Micro-Bath can calibrate any type of sensor including short, square, or odd-shaped sensors. The problems of fit and immersion are virtually eliminated by using a fluid medium rather than a dry-block calibrator. Micro-Baths are perfect for liquid-in-glass and bimetal thermometers.
The 6102 has a temperature range from 35 C to 200 C, the 7102 covers -5 C to 125 C, and the 7103 extends from -30 C to 125 C. Stability, uniformity, and accuracy specifications cover the entire range for each bath, not just the best temperature.
All Micro-Baths have RS-232 ports, come with our Interface-it software, and can be used with Fluke's MET/TEMP II software. Also included are contacts to calibrate a thermal switch, eight set-point memory storage, ramp-rate adjust, and over-temperature safety cutout.
You may have noticed we haven't touted our CFC-free refrigeration. Yes, cold Micro-Baths are CFC-free, and also compressor-free. That's right - no heavy, noisy compressor to lug around. We achieve our temperature range and stability with only one moving part. This means more durability and less weight.
