2 Introduction
2.1 Description
The M360 blackbody calibration source uniquely combines portability with wide temperature
range (50° to 1100 °C), high emissivity and remarkable resolution. An optional precision
machined aperture wheel assembly allows different sizes of aperture diameter for applications
requiring specific radiating aperture or for verifying field of view of radiometers or infrared
thermometers. The source and the controller are housed in separate modules which allow the
source to be positioned in a location remote from the controller such as in an environmental
test chamber, or to be used in tests which involve long path lengths. Each module is fitted with
a carrying handle and can be comfortably carried to manufacturing plant or field research
locations.
