Fluke 9173-C-R-156 Metrology Well

Overview

The Fluke 9173-C-R-156 is a high-performance metrology well designed for calibrating thermometers operating between 50°C and 700°C. With an immersion depth of 203 mm (8 inches) and display accuracy of ±0.25°C at 700°C, it significantly reduces uncertainty budgets for high-temperature calibrations. The unit features built-in reference thermometer input using Fluke's Tweener technology, which accommodates 100-, 25-, and 10-ohm PRTs and provides accurate readings from ±0.006°C at 0°C to ±0.027°C at 661°C.
