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...

Temperature measurement is a critical parameter in many industrial processes. As a result, these processes generally use installed thermometers or temperature transducers. Proper calibration of these installed systems has always presented a challenge. Traditionally, simulators are used to provide in-situ calibration of the electronic portions of these systems. Although this is a valid technique for the calibration of the electronics, considerable inaccuracies are introduced by the sensor itself.The...

As PV arrays age, there are many potential causes of system underperformance. Some may be expected, such as soiling losses or long-term array degradation. Some may be unexpected, such as bypass diode failure, cracked modules, and so forth. Because I-V curve tracers capture all the current and voltage operating points of a PV source, they are uniquely capable of identifying symptoms of underperformance in PV systems. Every module datasheet provides a model I-V curve that represents all the current...

Four must-have measurement practices for the mechanical maintenance team: thermal, vibration, insulation, electrical

Here we look closely at the first segment in a typical three-phase motor and drive system: from the mains supply at the drive input to the drive itself, concentrating on input measurements. This application note maps common problems to the measurements used to diagnose them . We show you what tools to use for a given situation and how to apply them to a problem, to enable you to troubleshoot more quickly and accurately.

Troubleshooting 4 to 20 mA (milliamp) process control systems without breaking the loop using Fluke 773 Milliamp Process Clamp Meter

Managing VFD voltage with a shaft grounding kit to detect shaft currents and eliminate downtime for customers, with a Fluke ScopeMeter™ oscilloscope

There's an old saying that the first time you hook up a three-phase motor it will run backwards. If you're lucky, it will only make you look foolish. If you're not, it could severely damage expensive equipment and cost you or your employer substantial money.

Preventing machine failure by detecting the first signs of trouble

Troubleshooting motor and drive problems such as single-phasing (losing one of the phase voltages) and flashover currents to outer bearings.

Troubleshooting premature motor failures

On circuits protected by GFCIs (Ground Fault Current Interrupters), leakage current can cause unnecessary and intermittent tripping. In extreme cases, it can cause a rise in voltage on accessible conductive parts.

The safety rated Fluke T+Pro gets field-tested by non-electricians. Larger buttons for gloved hands and a battery life indicator helped to make the transition from the old solenoid-based testers to the T+Pro much easier.

Since a small increase in current flow to a motor produces a proportionately larger amount of heat, motor amperage exceeding nameplate values should be carefully investigated as a possible cause. These overload trips, though often caused by motor loading issues, can also indicate bearing failure, insulation breakdown or voltage unbalance.

If you find a circuit that shows voltage when there should be none, be careful what you do next. Creating an arc is unsafe and could get you fired or much worse. Be safe. Determine whether the voltage is induced by nearby, energized cables or if it is being backfed from an unknown source.
