We created the field temperature dry block (FB) for industrial field use. It is small and easy enough to carry around, provides fast calibration and also offers excellent accuracy. Combine it with the Beamex MC6 calibrator and Beamex calibration software to enable a fully automated and paperless calibration system.

Available models

• FB150 / FB150R with range −25 °C … +150 °C (−13 °F … +302 °F)

• FB350 / FB350R with range +33 °C … +350 °C (+91.4 °F … +662 °F)

• FB660 / FB660R with range +50 °C … +660 °C (+122 °F … +1220 °F)

The R models include an internal reference thermometer with a connection for an external reference sensor.

Features

Lightweight, portable

The Beamex FB only weighs about 8 kg (17.64 lbs) so it can be easily carried around in the field.

Fast

The Beamex FB is extremely quick to reach various temperatures, which saves time and increases productivity.

Accuracy and performance

The Beamex FB provides excellent calibration accuracy. The dual zone controlled block provides excellent axial uniformity and radial uniformity.

Smart reference sensors

The Beamex FB has an internal reference thermometer (in R models), which enables connections to the Beamex smart reference sensors. These sensors have a memory that contains all of the sensor correction data. This enables the use of the reference sensor as a real plug-and-play.

Accredited accuracy

Each Beamex FB field temperature block is delivered with an accredited calibration certificate.

Usability

The large LCD display, function keys and multilingual, menu-based user interface makes the Beamex FB easy to use. A graphic and audible stability indicator lets you know when a block is stable. The HOT warning light indicates when the block is hot (over +50 °C). It blinks as long as the block is too hot to touch, even when the unit is switched off or when the mains cable is disconnected.

Part of the Beamex ICS Integrated Calibration Solution

The communication port enables communication with selected Beamex MC calibrators for automation calibration and documentation, making the Beamex FB products part of the Beamex ICS Integrated Calibration Solution. Combined with the Beamex MC6 calibrator, loop calibrations are possible with conventional, HART and Fieldbus temperature transmitters with sensors.
