Users who need to calibrate all kinds of multimeters, single-function meters, recorders, dataloggers and electronic thermometers - for example to comply with ISO9000 or other standards - will find Fluke's new 9100E meter calibrator a cost-effective solution. The Fluke 9100E enables the calibration of these instruments without the need for any extra equipment. It is also possible to connect a printer to the calibrator and print calibration results and certificates directly, without the need for a PC.
Fluke designed the 9100E specifically for users who have opted to carry out their own, in-house calibration procedures in service, maintenance and industrial environments. These needs are easy operation, fast turn-around times and ability to handle the widest possible range of meters. Fluke claims the 9100E is so easy to use that a typical calibration procedure takes less than five minutes. A unique procedure mode allows semi-automated calibration - useful for operators with no special metrology training. All the information required for ISO9000 compliance, such as the operator's name and the serial number of the instrument under test, can be entered simply using the alphanumeric keyboard.
To further simplify matters, the Fluke 9100E offers a range of fully tested, ready-to-use calibration procedures for most popular multimeters. These are available in an optional meter calibration procedures library, and can be downloaded into the standard PCMCIA memory cards.
The 9100e's versatile range of outputs includes DC and AC voltages up to 1050 V, DC and AC currents up to 1000 A (using the current coil supplied), and variable resistances up to 400 MW. Also provided are continuously variable capacitances up to 40 µF, conductance values up to 2,5 mS and a wide range of specific waveform signals.
