Details

Designed to satisfy the exacting parameters of infrared focal plane array detectors, thermal imaging and forward looking infrared (FLIR) systems testing in static and moving scene applications, LumaSense’s M345X Series blackbody calibration sources combine fast slew rates, high emissivity, and unchallenged stability and uniformity. As part of an extensive range of general purpose and primary standards for testing and calibrating a wide variety of IR devices, the M345X Series embodies the accumulated expertise of almost 30 years of specialization in this discipline.

The M345X Series Blackbody Sources are cooled and heated by precision thermoelectric modules (Peltier method) and are available in absolute or differential configurations. The two piece system is comprised of 19 inch rack mount controller and a separate emitter source enclosure.

The sources are available in emitter sizes ranging from 4x4 inch (101x101 mm) up to 12x12 inch (305 x 305 mm) and in standard temperature range of 0.00 °C to 170.00 °C (32 to 338 °F) or 0.00 °C to 150.00 °C (32 to 302 °F) for M345X12).
