source rather than an electrical simulator, a test
instrument and sensor can be calibrated as a system
The Hyperion and Drago have large calibration volumes,
65mm x 160mm deep, which makes them ideal to use as
portable liquid baths. Stirred liquid baths are suitable for
temperature sensors of all types, sizes and shapes. Liquid
Baths can provide smaller calibration uncertainties than dry
blocks and when used with suitable reference thermometers,
accuracies of up to 0.005°C can be achieved.
These models are part of the award winning Isocal-6 family
and with a reference probe can be used with different
accessories for Dry Block, Infrared, Surface Calibration and
even with ITS-90 Fixed Point Cells for uncertainties to
0.001°C. In Dry Block Mode, the large 65mm diameter
block allows for the calibration of either larger probes or for
calibrating many sensors simultaneously.
As a Liquid bath the sensors can be placed directly into the
stirred liquid thus avoiding the need for specially drilled
blocks. If the liquid is directly in the block then the controller
only model, or Basic (B) model, can be selected. However,
instead of putting liquids directly in the block liquid
containers can be used to facilitate rapid change of fluids.
For greater accuracy, or when using a liquid container, Dry
Block Insert, Blackbody Target or the Surface Sensor Kit a
separate reference thermometer should be used to
compensate for the varying offset between the controller
and the accessory temperature.
An ideal arrangement would be to include the handheld
Isotech TTI-10 or the bench top Isotech milliK Precision
Thermometer and Model 935-14-16 Semi Standard
Platinum Resistance Thermometer.

ISOcAL-6
LIQUID & DRY BLOCK
Metal Block Bath
Dry Block Calibrator provides fast and clean calibration of
thermocouples, PRTs and other industrial sensors. Isotech
blocks use a combination of multi zone and advanced
materials technology to ensure constant temperature zones
for high accuracy calibration.
Stirred Liquid Bath
Remove the metal block to convert to a stirred liquid bath.
Liquid bath operation allows angled or awkward shaped
probes to be calibrated. Accuracies are improved over Dry
Blocks alone and with a suitable reference probe performance
of 0.005°C is achievable.
Stirred Ice / Water Bath
The ISOCAL-6 models that operate below 0°C can be used to
provide a 0°C stirred ice / water bath. This provides a simple
low cost way of checking that standards have not drifted in
between calibrations.
Accessories
Dry Block Mode with Inserts
936-06-01a Standard Insert is:
8 x 8mm + 2 x 4.5mm all 157mm Deep.
All Inserts have a 4mm tapped hole to suit
supplied extractor tool.
Alternative Inserts
936-06-01b Blank Insert
936-06-01c Special Insert.
Stirred Liquid Mode with Liquid
Container Kit 936-06-02
Allows liquid bath use, includes container,
magnetic stirrer, probe guide and sealing
cap.
Stirred Ice Bath Mode with Liquid
Container Kit
Uses same liquid kit to provide 0°C
reference as a stirred ice bath.
Thermometer Support Kit 936-06-08
Supports up to eight thermometers into
liquid. Suits probes 5mm - 8mm in
diameter.
Adding the blackbody target allows the testing of infrared
thermometers. Low cost non-contact IR thermometers are
increasingly being used in industry and the ISOCAL-6 is
ideal to test and check these devices. The IR thermometer is
focused on the target and compared to a reference probe in
the block pocket.
Surface Sensor Calibrator
With the Surface Sensor Kit the test sensor is compared to
a platinum resistance thermometer located just below the
surface of the block. Again save the cost of buying additional
equipment by adding accessories as required to expand the
ISOCAL-6 for new calibration applications.
ITS-90 Fixed Point Apparatus
For the best possible performance with uncertainties to
0.0005°C (0.5mK) add an ITS-90 Fixed Point Cell. The most
popular is the B8 Water Triple Point Cell, it is surprisingly
affordable and simple to use - the triple point can be both
created and maintained in the apparatus without the need for
any other equipment or supplies.
