Ametek RTC-156 (-30˚C to 155˚C) & RTC-157 ( -45˚C to 155˚C) Reference Temperature Calibrators
INTRODUCING NEW!! JofraCloud Option for any RTC or PTC Calibrator
Dual-zone heating technology and dynamic load compensation for superior temperature homogeneity
The Ametek RTC-156 and RTC-157 reference temperature calibrators combine Ametek's unparalleled experience with temperature calibration with cutting edge technological features creating the most sophisticated dry block temperature calibrators on the market.
The Ametek RTC-156 and RTC-157 reference temperature calibrators are available in three configurations: RTC-A reference temperature calibrator, RTC-B reference temperature calibrator with input for reference sensor, DLC sensor and sensors-under-test, and RTC-C reference temperature calibrator with input for reference sensor and DLC sensor. The RTC-156 and RTC-157 can be used without an external reference sensor. However, users will obtain better accuracies and realize the calibrator's full potential by utilizing the STS-200 reference sensor. Both the STS-200 and DLC sensors contain all individual calibration data regarding the sensor, allowing users to change the reference sensor and be up and running immediately.
The RTC-156 and RTC-157 feature a rugged, lightweight design and multi-hole inserts that cover most commonly used sensor sizes.
NEW!! JofraCloud Option for any RTC or PTC Calibrator

JofraCloud is a new way to perform remote reading and setting of our temperature calibrators over an unlimited distance. JofraCloud is a gateway that has transmission coverage equal to a smartphone.
The data is presented as a copy of the calibrators display, and can be viewed at jofracloud.com. The webpage is accessible via a browser on any device - PC, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.
The gateway can be attached to any RTC or PTC calibrator and reads data from the calibrator every 2 seconds.
* Remote Setpoints – Select a new temperature setpoint on your calibrator using your device.
* Documented Stability Reporting – When the calibrator reaches the set temperature and gains stability, an emailed report will be sent to your controlling device.
* On Demand Reporting – Generate a timestamped emailed report at any time.
* When using JofraCloud from your PC, you can get an audible notification when the calibrator reaches stability.
* Control and communicate up to 5 calibrators simultaneously with a single Gateway.
* Print a timestamped PDF as documentation.

High accuracy Down to ±0.04°C using the external reference sensor. 4-wire True-Ohm-Measurement technology is used.
Excellent stability 0.005˚C
Wide temperature range RTC-156 from -30 to 155°C (-22 to 311°F)
RTC-157 from -45 to 155°C (-49 to 311°F)
Improved temperature homogeneity Unique active dual-zone block ensures good temperature homogeneity in the calibration zone
Dynamic Load Compensation (DLC) Perfect temperature uniformity in the insert, even when calibrating large sensors or many sensors at a time. B and C models only
Display indicator for temperature uniformity Shows the degree of temperature uniformity in the insert when using the new DLC technology. B and C models only
Intelligent reference sensors JOFRA reference sensors are supplied with intelligent plugs, holding the calibration data (coefficients) of the reference sensor. This is a truly plug’n’play calibration system
USB communication All RTC calibrators communicate via an easy-to-use USB port
