FLUKE EXPANDS CALIBRATION PORTFOLIO
luke Corporation has announced a new addition to its 55XX multi-product calibrator series with the Fluke 5530A Basic Multi-Product Calibrator. Designed for calibration and metrology technicians, the 5530A targets industrial calibration workloads at a more affordable price point. In addition, a new Null Meter option was added to the Fluke 8588A-series Reference Multimeter for metrologists and calibration technicians in laboratory environments, creating a new generation of digital null meter capability that will obsolete analogue null detectors. “These new solutions reflect our deep collaboration with calibration professionals,” says Ben Ewoldt, product manager at Fluke Calibration. “By listening closely to our customers, we developed the 5530A calibrator and enhanced Null Meter capabilities to deliver the precision, flexibility, and automation they need— at a better cost and with greater efficiency.” The new 5530A Basic Multi-Product Calibrator is designed to be a workhorse for industrial organisations. The 5530A enables calibration technicians to keep their factories running and their equipment calibrated at a lower cost. Key features of the system include calibration support for 4.5-digit multimeters and as well as compatibility with the Fluke Calibration 52120A
Transconductance Amplifier for expanded workloads. The 5530A also addresses power workloads with dual output for ACV and DCV. Fluke also announced new firmware updates across its Fluke 55XX series that allow organisations to expand and automate their calibration workloads. The 55XX series of multiproduct calibrators, 5560A, 5550A, and 5540A, are receiving a new firmware update, allowing technicians and metrologists to execute calibrations with more automation. The firmware update supports higher amps on clamp meters for expanded workloads. Users can:
Drive efficiency, save time in set up, and enhance the overall user experience with full control of up to three 52120A Transconductance Amplifiers via rear panel connectors.
Understand exactly which coil is producing which amount of effective source current with Fluke Coil support through the graphical user interface (GUI).
Take out the guesswork out of doing calculations by using the GUI to display how specifications are derived.
The new Null Meter option is now available for the 8588A Reference Multimeter. This option allows users to automate and complete null detection faster and more accurately with extremely low noise. New functionality includes:
Aligning and balancing divider networks: Before use in high precision calibrations with 0.2ppm-0.5ppm accuracy.
Digital-forward design: The null meter has an intuitive user interface to collect measurements that can be automated as needed.
Less noise: Internal 5 Hz LP filter is now enabled when using this option, significantly reducing measurement noise to levels comparable to or better than traditional analogue null detectors .
Reduced current bias (typically less than 5pA, specified to less than 20pA).
