Fluke Calibration 5616-12-P

The temperature range of the 5616 covers -200 °C to 420 °C, and its high-purity platinum element and durability make it great for calibrating in the lab or in the field. When choosing a reference with a platinum element, there are two things you want to look at carefully: the short-term repeatability and the long-term drift. When PRTs are thermally cycled over their temperature range as they would be during a calibration, their resistance at the triple point of water can move up and down within an expected range. Fluke Calibration defines this range (called short-term repeatability) as the repeatability at the triple point of water during three thermal cycles. 5616s are among the best performing in their class with short-term repeatability better than ± 0.010 °C (± 0.004 °C is typical). In addition, the 5616s drift is ± 0.007 °C at the triple point of water when exposed up to its maximum temperature (420 °C) for 100 hours. These specifications are given at k=2 and therefore include a 95 % confidence level.
