Designed for precise calibration of infrared thermometers, pyrometers, and thermal cameras, this infrared calibrator pairs a 128 mm aperture and 0.97 emissivity with a 41 to 932°F (5 to 500°C) range. Its Pt100 sensor and PID control regulate the blackbody to ±0.35°C accuracy at 35°C, helping lab and field teams verify IR instruments from a compact touch-display source.
Optris OPTBR500V1 Offers
A high-performance reference source, the Optris BR-500 gives infrared instruments a known, stable temperature to measure against. A large 128 mm aperture and 0.97 emissivity produce a uniform, stable radiating surface, and a Pt100 sensor with PID control holds the setpoint accurate to as tight as ±0.35°C. Temperature is set and monitored from a touch display across 41 to 932°F (5 to 500°C). Its compact, rugged housing suits both calibration labs and on-site verification.
