What is the calibration accuracy of Fluke hot runner systems?

Fluke's standard equipment achieves a calibration accuracy of ±0.03°C to ±0.05°C for hot runner calibration scenarios, which is far higher than the traditional accuracy requirements of hot runner production. The following are specific accuracy parameters for various models:

1. The most popular Fluke models for calibrating hot runners:

The Fluke 1524 2-channel reference thermometer has a measuring accuracy of ±0.03°C. The total calibration error can be regulated within ±0.05°C when combined with standard thermocouples of the same brand.

The accuracy of the Fluke 1526 4-channel reference thermometer is identical to that of the 1524. Batch calibration can be done with many channels, and the overall calibration accuracy is between ±0.03°C and ±0.05°C.

2. Explanation of accuracy redundancy

Even for precision injection molding, a calibration accuracy of ≤±0.1℃ is adequate; this accuracy greatly surpasses the requirements of hot runner manufacturing. Fluke's precision satisfies the strictest metrological traceability requirements with plenty of redundancy. However, a precise redundancy of 0.03°C is overkill and totally unnecessary for traditional hot runner production.
