Rugged temperature calibrator ideal for the field
Designed for process instrument technicians, the Fluke 724 Temperature Calibrator can test and calibrate almost any temperature instrument.
The new V2.3 software features device-specific calibration support for the latest revisions of currently supported transmitters, as well as for new temperature and pressure transmitters and instruments including those from Honeywell, Wika, Endress+Hauser and other leading vendors.
With these additions the Fluke 744 offers the most extensive list of device-specific Hart support available.
The Fluke 744 is ideal for calibrating, maintaining and troubleshooting Hart instrumentation including temperature and pressure transmitters.
In addition to offering simultaneous source and measure capabilities for all common process parameters, the Fluke 744 includes a serial interface for two-way communication with popular PC-based instrumentation management software applications.
As well as device-specific calibration support, the Fluke 744 supports Hart universal and common practice commands that will enable the user to work with all other Hart devices.
In the new version V2.3 instrument software this command set has been further extended to include calibration and configuration of dual-sensor Hart temperature transmitters.
For automated testing of temperature sensors and transmitters the new V2.3 also has the ability to control a Hart Scientific dry block calibrator.
Automated tests can be executed by remotely setting the temperature set-point of the dry block.
The Fluke 744 documenting process calibrator is available from authorised Fluke distributors.
Customers who wish to upgrade their existing 744 DPCs can purchase the V2.3 upgrade. Request a free brochure from Fluke (UK) ...
