Ametek RTC-159 (-100 to 155°C) Reference Temperature Calibrator

NEW!! JofraCloud Option for any RTC or PTC Calibrator.

Measuring temp range: -148 to 311°F (-100 to 155°C). The most versatile temperature calibrator available.

The Ametek RTC-159 Reference Temperature Calibrator is the most versatile temperature calibrator available with a temperature range that makes it especially ideal for use in the health care, medical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology and food industries.

The RTC-159 can be used in many applications where either high heat or extreme cooling is needed. Intuitive to use and easy to run, the RTC-159 is equipped with a large informative, easy-to-read color display. The RTC-159 is lightweight and easy-to-carry and ensures durability.

The RTC-series features our Ametek's active dualzone heating technology. Each heating zone is independently controlled for precision temperature calibration. The homogeneity in the lower part is close to that of a laboratory liquid bath. The lower zone ensures optimum heat dissipation throughout the entire calibration zone. The upper zone compensates for heat loss from the sensor-under-test and from the open top. This design also eliminates the need for extra insulation of sensors-under-test and makes it possible to calibrate any type of mechanical sensors. The RTC-159 can perform calibration over a very wide temperature range starting from -100°C and up to 155°C (-148 to 311°F). The patented technology makes it possible to perform calibration of sensors in applications ranging from ultra-coolers to autoclaves.

NEW!! JofraCloud Option for any RTC or PTC Calibrator

JofraCloud

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.



  • Widest temperature range
  •      From -100 to 155°C (-148 to 311°F).
  • High accuracy
  •      Down to ±0.11°C using the external reference sensor. 4-wire True-Ohm-Measurement technology is used.
  • Most stable ultra cooler calibration on the market ±0.03˚C (±0.05°F)
  • Perfect temperature homogeneity in the insert
  •      Even when calibrating large sensors or many sensors at once, the unique, patent pending, dynamic load compensation (DLC) system in combination with JOFRA´s active dual-zone technology ensures perfect temperature homogeneity. (B and C models only)
  • Fastest calibration possible
  •      The efficient free piston stirling cooler (FPSC) technology is used to secure fast cooling and heating temperature changes
  • Easy to carry
  •      Weighing only 15.2 kg (33.5 lb), the RTC-159 is by far the lightest and most portable ultra cooler on the market
  • 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 & play calibration system
  • USB communication
  •      All RTC calibrators communicate via an easy-to-use USB port
  • EURAMET
  •      Best performing dry-block with regard to the EURAMET/cg-13/v.01 guideline for testing of dry blocks
