Description
Calibration by means of an external standard thermometer TheWIKAstandardthermometersareparticularlysuited forapplicationsinindustriallaboratories.Theyenableeasy comparativecalibrationinourbaths,intubefurnaceandin drywellcalibrators. Theuseofanexternalreferencethermometerisrecommended,particularlyforthecalibrationofshorttemperature sensors.Thustheerrorsduetotheradialandaxialtemperaturedistributioninthetemperatureconditioningunitare considerablyreduced.
