Lightweight, portable
The Beamex FB field temperature block is ideal for industrial field use. It only weighs about 8 kg, and it is small enough to carry around.
Speed
The Beamex FB is extremely quick to reach various temperatures, i.e. it cools down to –25 °C in 15 minutes and heats up to +660 °C in 15 minutes. This saves time and increases productivity.
Accuracy and performance
The Beamex FB is an easily portable unit that also provides excellent calibration accuracy. The display accuracy is up to ±0.2 °C and its control technology provides great stability up to ±0.01 °C. The dual zone controlled block provides excellent axial uniformity up to ±0.04 °C and radial uniformity up to ±0.01 °C.
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 calibration
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 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.
