Techne showed the Tecal 1200, the latest addition to its range of portable temperature calibrators at the MTec exhibition - a high-temperature model with a top temperature of 1200C
The Tecal 1200 is a dry-block model providing very accurate thermal calibration facilities for a wide variety of thermocouples and other temperature-related devices from 150C to 1200C.
It is convenient and easy to use on site and in a laboratory.
The heating system is designed to ensure optimum uniformity and rapid heating rates, and the isothermal block assembly is machined from a special incolloy alloy that gives excellent thermal conductivity and resists high-temperature oxidation.
The block, which is supported by a ceramic tube to ensure equal temperature distribution, has four test holes 8mm diameter x 110mm deep, suitable for most commonly found devices.
