Overview
The Mikron® M345X6-LC blackbody source is liquid-cooled and heated by precision thermoelectric modules (Peltier method). It is available in absolute or differential configurations.
M345X6-LC calibration sources satisfy the exacting parameters of infrared focal plane array detectors, thermal imaging, and forward-looking infrared (FLIR) systems testing in static and moving scene applications. They combine fast slew rates, high emissivity, and unchallenged stability and uniformity.
Benefits
- Calibrate and verify the output signals of pyrometers, thermal imagers, etc.
- Obtain lower temperature calibrations using liquid cooling
- Utilize large aperture sizes
- Control emitter source temperature with a precision digital PID controller
- Satisfy the exacting parameters of infrared focal plane array detectors, thermal imaging and forward looking infrared (FLIR) systems testing
Features
- High emissivity with thermometric calibration
- Uniform temperature distribution with precision heating elements
- Manufactured and tested to meet rigid quality control standards
- Furnished with a certificate of calibration traceable to NIST
- RS232 serial communication
