The BBS1700 is a benchtop blackbody calibration source covering 300°C to 1700°C (572°F to 3272°F), with a large 1-inch aperture, emissivity greater than 0.99, and stabilisation to within 0.5°C of set point. It’s built for precision calibration of non-contact IR thermometers, thermal imaging cameras and FPA detectors.
The Process Sensors BBS1700 benchtop blackbody calibration source operates across a wide temperature range from 300°C to 1700°C (572°F to 3272°F). It provides a large 1-inch aperture with high accuracy and uniformity, long-term stability and a fast slew rate — used for calibration verification of non-contact infrared thermometers/pyrometers, thermal imaging detectors/cameras, focal plane array detectors, and heat flux meters. This versatile blackbody source is also ideal for use with collimators and automated calibration test stations.
Ideal for calibration environments in laboratories, universities and manufacturing facilities — wherever non-contact infrared thermometers, thermal imaging camera systems, focal plane array detectors or spectrophotometers need traceable, high-temperature reference calibration.
