This video demonstrates two methods for calibrating a digital thermometer: first, with ice and boiling water, and second, with our Fluke dry-block calibrators. Both methods are easy and fast. However, the water method has inaccuracies that are unknown caused by variations in altitude, atmospheric pressure, and water purity. The dry-block calibration method provides a better measurement because we’re working with instruments that have a known accuracy.   Keep learningDo you use ice and boiling...

If you are calibrating a medium to high accuracy RTD, you will probably use the characterization method of calibration. Characterization is the type of calibration in which the device under test (DUT) resistance is determined at several temperature points and the data are fitted to a mathematical expression.To calibrate an RTD, perform these steps:Place the reference probe and the DUTs in the temperature source. Make sure they are all placed as close together as possible, in a radial pattern with...

A diode is a semiconductor device that essentially acts as a one-way switch for current.

The new Fluke Ti450 Infrared Camera takes focus to a new level of clarity with MultiSharp™ Focus. An out-of-focus thermal image can give you data that may lead to misdiagnosis — potentially costing you thousands — with no way to correct it once it has been captured, short of taking new images. The new Fluke Ti450 Infrared Camera solves this problem by delivering images automatically focused throughout the field of view.

Unplanned downtime due to equipment failure can cost manufacturers up to three percent of their revenue, according the U.S. Federal Energy Management Program.
