Abstract: | A small multiple fixed-point cell (SMFPC) was designed to be used as in situ calibration reference of the internal temperature sensor of a dry block calibrator, which would allow its traceable calibration to the International Temperature Scale of 1990 (ITS-90) in the operating range of the block calibrator from \(70\,^{\circ }\hbox {C}\) to \(430\,^{\circ }\hbox {C}\). The ITS-90 knows in this temperature range, three fixed-point materials (FPM) indium, tin and zinc, with their respective fixed-point temperatures (\(\vartheta _\mathrm {FP}\)), In (\(\vartheta _\mathrm {FP}\,{=}\,156.5985\,^{\circ }\hbox {C}\)), Sn (\(\vartheta _\mathrm {FP}\,{=}\,231.928\,^{\circ }\hbox {C}\)) and Zn (\(\vartheta _\mathrm {FP}\,{=}\,419.527\,^{\circ }\hbox {C}\)). All of these FPM are contained in the SMFPC in a separate chamber, respectively. This paper shows the result of temperature measurements carried out in the cell within a period of 16 months. The test setup used here has thermal properties similar to the dry block calibrator. The aim was to verify the metrological properties and functionality of the SMFPC for the proposed application. |
