Features


This BB-4A is a blackbody temperature reference source which is adjustable over the range from 100 to 982°C (212 to 1800°F) and accurate to ±1°C, ±0.25% rdg. It has a built-in digital temperature controller to provide accurate, stable temperatures as well as to provide the temperature readings of the cavity. The heated cavity provides a target of known temperature and emissivity, and virtually any infrared pyrometer with a spot size diameter less than 22 mm (0.88") can be calibrated. The compact, portable design allows for quick and easy calibration setups. Both models come standard with an RS232 computer interface which allows computer control of the setpoints for automatic test applications. A NIST traceable calibration certificate is also provided.

What is the diameter of the reference probe well on the back of the BB-4A?

Asked by: ThermoAdam
Hi Adam- I believe you have the wrong idea for what's on the back of this unit. There is no probe well on the back, there is a connection for an external reference probe. The connection is a RSJ-K-R which used with any standard size connector. If you have further questions please contact Temp@Omega.com

The reference thermocouple probe at the base of cavity on the rear of the calibrator is reading around 10 degrees F more than the SV and PV. The SV and PV match what the Camera is reading. Does the camera need calibration? Or its fine?

Asked by: SMaini
The port in the back is strictly for reference, and will read higher than the cavity, which is at a calibrated emissivity of .99 so your camera is fine.

What is the depth of the cavity? My setup uses spherical lenses for image formation and I would like the focal point of the objective lens to lie on the surface of the black body.
