| Kaye LTR-150 - Dry Block & Liquid Bath All-in-One Temperature Calibrator
1.3 Surface Temperature Function
The LTR-150 can also be used for surface temperature calibrations
by utilizing the optional surface temperature insert (PN: 412-3054).
The surface insert is hollow from the bottom and longer than the
adapter sleeve enabling fast and easy calibrations.
The surface temperature insert has a bored hole where the
control reference probe can be inserted which is directly beneath
the contact surface of the insert. This enables very accurate
measurement of the surface temperature. The insert is designed
for optimized homogeneity of the contact surface’s center while
enabling solid thermal contact.
The surface temperature insert is ideal for calibrating / verifying Flat Surface
ValProbes in the temperature range from -25°C to 150°C.
1.4 Calibration Modes
The LTR-150 was designed to offer flexibility and ease of use. To
accommodate these needs Kaye implemented two main modes or menu’s Remote Control mode and
Standalone mode.
Remote Control mode is intended for
Automatic Calibration utilizing Kaye
Validator equipment (Validator 2000,
Validator AVS, ValProbe and RF ValProbe).
In this mode, control of the LTR-150 and
the touchscreen interface is automatically
driven by the appropriate Kaye software.
In the Kaye software, the user configures
the set points, the stability criteria, and
deviation criteria. The user simply starts
the calibration from the Kaye software
and the control of the calibration is
automated. No additional interaction with
the touchscreen is required. The LTR-150
when powered on automatically boots
into the Remote Control screen.
The Standalone mode is intended again
to offer flexibility by allowing fully manual
configuration of the LTR-150 to define all
different kinds of parameters from different
types of sensors, ramp and soaks setups /
profiles to address other calibration needs.
For Standalone mode, refer to Chapter 7.
Manual Calibration and Chapter 8. Controls
for details the options and screen flows to
manually configure the LTR-150.
