Temperature CalibratorsFLUKE Calibration 6102/7102/7103 Micro-Bath
Portable and extremely stable
Need portability and extreme stability? Fluke Calibration Micro-Baths have both. We invented the Micro-Bath. And, while many have tried to duplicate it, none of them use proprietary Fluke Calibration controllers, so none of them deliver performance like a Fluke Calibration bath. Micro-Baths can be used anywhere for any type of sensor. The 6102 weighs less than 4.5 kg (10 lb.), with the fluid. It’s lighter and smaller than most dry-wells, has a spill-proof lid, and is easier to carry than your lunch. You can take it where you need to go without carts or excessive effort. Micro-Baths can even be transported with the fluid in them.
Wherever you go with your Micro-Bath, you can count on its performance. Each model is stable to ±0.03 °C or better, depending on the fluid you use. Uniformity is ±0.02 °C or better for low uncertainties using a reference thermometer. Display accuracy has been improved to ±0.25 °C for quick calibrations without a reference thermometer. In short, you get the stability and precision of a liquid bath in a dry-well-sized package. Don’t be fooled by competitors who pour oil into a dry-well and call it a bath. Micro-Baths are maximized for true fluid-bath performance.
With a 48 mm (1.9-inch) diameter, 140 mm (5.5-inch) deep tank, a Micro-Bath can calibrate any type of sensor including short, square, or odd-shaped sensors. The problems of fit and immersion are virtually eliminated by using a fluid medium rather than a dry-block calibrator. Micro-Baths are perfect for liquid-in-glass and bimetal thermometers.
The 6102 has a temperature range from 35 °C to 200 °C, the 7102 covers –5 °C to 125 °C, and the 7103 extends from –30 °C to 125 °C. Stability, uniformity, and accuracy specifications cover the entire range for each bath, not just the best temperature.
All Micro-Baths have RS-232 ports and can be used with MET/TEMP II software (described on page 81). Also included are contacts to calibrate a thermal switch, eight set-point memory storage, ramp-rate adjust, and over-temperature safety cutout.
You may have noticed we haven’t touted our CFC-free refrigeration. Yes, cold Micro-Baths are CFC-free, and also compressor-free. That’s right—no heavy, noisy compressor to lug around. We achieve our temperature range and stability with only one moving part. This means more durability and less weight. Fluke Calibration manufactures and sells temperature calibration baths of every size and shape, and now we have the smallest and lightest baths in the industry to go with the dozens of other models we make.
Look at the specs, price, and value of these portable instruments and you’ll know why Fluke Calibration is the number-one company in this business.

Temperature CalibratorsFLUKE Full Immersion PRT
Ultra-Compact, Reliable, and Designed for Complete Immersion
Total Flexibility for Extreme Environments
The Fluke 5606 Full Immersion Platinum Resistance Thermometer (PRT) offers an unmatched solution for applications where full immersion of the probe—including transition junction and lead wires—is required. With a compact length of just two inches (50 mm) and a sheath diameter of only 1/8 inch (3.1 mm), the 5606 delivers accuracy and durability in the tightest spaces.
Key Features and Benefits
- Truly Full Immersion – No need to calculate minimum immersion depth. Simply immerse the entire probe, transition junction, and lead wires over the entire operating range—from –200 °C to 160 °C—in either non-corrosive liquids or dry mediums.
- High Accuracy in a Compact Size – Achieve calibration accuracies as good as ±0.05 °C, thanks to the specially constructed 100 Ω precision sensing element (alpha = 0.00385) that also blocks moisture ingress.
- Superior Moisture Protection – Single-conductor enameled copper lead wires prevent moisture from wicking into the sensing element, offering better protection than traditional stranded leads.
- Flexible and Easy Installation – Lead wires measure no greater than 0.2 mm in diameter, making it simple to route through tight spaces—such as a freezer door—without energy loss.
- Proven Durability – The 5606 has demonstrated excellent performance in heat transfer fluids like silicone oil, mineral oil, ethanol, and even liquid nitrogen, with no loss of integrity in the transition junction or lead wire insulation.
Engineered for Demanding Applications
The 5606 Full Immersion PRT is specifically designed to thrive in extreme environments. Both the transition junction and lead wires are built to endure temperatures covering the full probe range, ensuring complete reliability in challenging conditions.
“Immersion” means exposure to extreme temperatures—not just being submerged in a liquid—making the 5606 ideal for a wide variety of rigorous uses.

What is a Blackbody Calibrator?
A blackbody calibrator (or blackbody source) is a device that emits thermal radiation with high emissivity, typically near 1.0. This makes it behave closely to an ideal blackbody, emitting radiation according to Planck’s law.
Blackbody calibrators are essential tools for ensuring the accuracy of:
- Infrared thermometers
- Thermal imagers
- Non-contact temperature measurement devices
By aiming a device under test at the precisely controlled blackbody target, users can verify and adjust readings to ensure accuracy and compliance with calibration standards.
