Target Plate Air Purge
The BB701 comes with a nitrogen air purge collar
that surrounds the target plate. When connected to
a nitrogen gas source the target plate is kept free of
condensation at lower temperatures. Snow is likely to
form on the plate when it is kept at temperatures below
freezing temperature. Snow or condensation will change
a target’s emissivity. The can lead to inaccuracies unless
the infrared pyrometer is corrected for this emissivity
change. It is therefore recommended that the user take
advantage of this feature.
Use dry gas or Nitrogen with a dew point below -20°C
(-4.0°F). The rate of gas inlet should be 0.25 to 0.50 m
2
/
hr. (5 to 10 ft
3
/hr.). Do not exceed the maximum gas
inlet rate. The port will accept any flexible tubing (vinyl,
rubber, Teflon, latex) with a ¼" outer diameter, such as

Reference Probe
An RTD probe has been embedded into the target plate
heater assembly to be used as a reference to check the
calibrator’s calibration and accuracy. A connector has
been provided with your calibrator for connection to
this reference probe. Listed below are a few calibration
points and the resistance readings you can expect from
the reference probe.
