605-05 - Temperature Calibrators
Learning objectives
- Explain how temperature sources and simulators are used to perform thermocouple and RTD calibration
- Describe the common types of temperature sources used for calibrating temperature instruments: dry well (block), liquid and fluidized-sand bath, and thermoelectric
- Describe the operation of a blackbody calibrator
Course overview
Temperature instrument calibration must verify correct output from the primary element. It also verifies proper operation of the remaining sensor circuitry.
The Temperature Calibrators training course investigates the most common equipment needed to perform temperature instrument calibration. It explains the equipment's basic function and operation.
Temperature Calibrators is part of the Test Equipment training series.
