Classification -
equipment calibration, optical pyrometer temperature calibration.

The Precision Optical Test Set calibration
standard is designed to accurately and simultaneously calibrate up to two optical pyrometers to read identically, irrespective of manufacture. It has been used for many years as a simple and easy-to-use
temperature calibration source to calibrate and verify optical pyrometers accuracy. In high demand applications, temperature errors and uncertainties are eliminated with on-site or in-house calibration.
The Optical Test Set uses a ribbon filament
tungsten strip lamp that is readily adjusted to the desired temperature value by adjusting the rheostat electrical current passing through the lamp. The lamp swivel base and sighting tube ensure precise optical alignment between the two optical pyrometers during calibration.


To operate the Optical Test Set, the user must first connect the proper power terminals to the 12 Vdc battery supply or equivalent DC power supply. Next, connect up a laboratory
precision dc ammeter or potentiometer with a corresponding shunt for 0 to 30 amperes to measure the electrical current going to the lamp. Finally, the operator uses the
filament lamp certificate of calibration data to determine the current necessary to produce the desired temperature of the lamp.
