3 Construction
The calibrator / micro calibration bath consists of a robust, black and red steel housing with
an integrated carrying handle.
Components:
The
rear part of the housing
contains a metal block/liquid bath with a hole, accessible from
the top, for the test specimen fixture.
The heating or cooling elements and the temperature sensor for determining the reference
temperature are integrated in the metal block / liquid bath.
The metal block / liquid bath is heat insulated.
The
front part of the housing
contains the complete electronic unit for controlling the refer-
ence temperature.
Solid state relays (SSR) are used to control the heating and cooling elements.
A controller with a two-line, four-digit 7-segment LED display for the reference and target
temperatures is located on the front panel.
The reference temperature can be set precisely with 0.1 °C resolution using the P and
or
buttons.
The micro calibration bath also has a thumb wheel for controlling the stirring speed.
A power supply switch is located on the
front of the housing
. This is also where the IEC
plug with fuse for the mains supply can be found.
The 5-pole socket is provided for service purposes and is additionally used as a data inter-
face to the PC for the S version.
