Fluke 9170-B-R-156 Metrology Well

Overview

The Fluke 9170-B-R-156 is a precision dry block metrology well designed for temperature calibration in laboratory and field environments. It achieves temperatures from -45°C to 140°C with exceptional stability and uniformity, making it ideal for calibrating RTDs, thermocouples, and thermistors in pharmaceutical and industrial applications.

This model features built-in reference thermometry with the -R option, accommodating 100-, 25-, and 10-ohm PRTs. The Tweener measurement technology enables direct reading of thermometer probes with high accuracy, while the included RS-232 interface supports automated calibrations via Model 9938 MET/TEMP II software.
