4.1 Introduction
The CALsys 1700 used as Dry block calibrator for thermocouple calibration and it can be used also as a pyrometer
calibration with ceramic cavity.
The 'CALsys 1700' has been designed to provide stable and accurate temperature to enable professionals to
calibrate Temperature Sensing Devices (Thermocouple & pyrometer) by comparison method up to a temperature
range of 1700°C. The 'CALsys 1700L' model has been designed to be rugged and easily maintained. This model
provides an isothermal enclosure (Ceramic block) in which the thermocouple can be calibrated against the
temperature of the calibrator.
The 'CALsys 1700BB' model has been designed in single part. This model provides an isothermal enclosure in
which the Non contact pyrometers can be checked against the temperature of the black body. For traceable
calibration a master pyrometer should be used. The units' features emissivity of 0.99, thus offering the closest
approximation of a target surface that is a perfect emitter of infrared energy.
4.2 Outline Description
'Calsys 1700 is a transportable unit designed for use on any reasonable flat surface. The target is a ridged Ceramic
Tube Cavity which is painted by a high emissive paint .The target is heated by MoSiO2 heaters which allows the
source to heat up to 1700°C in about 3Hrs and hold it stable at temperature within ±2.0°C. The heater blockhouses
consists a heater & the controller sensor. The temperature controller to sense the block temperature uses this
sensor. To obtain the maintain a required temperature the controller varies the power to the heaters via a power
control device.
[!] Warning : Do not insert impure materials, metal objects or probes etc. into the cavity.
4. Overview

(6.1)"B" type duplex thermocouple
for controlling & over temperature
protection.
5.1 Power
Plug the black body power cord into a mains outlet of the proper voltage, frequency and current capability. Typically
this will be (230 VAC±10%, 50-60 Hz). Turn on the black body using "Mains" switch loacated at rear side. The black
body will turn on and begin to heat for previously programmed set point.
Note:
ŸAll other controller parameters are company set and locked. It is recommended not to change them.
ŸWhen the source is operated at any temperature above ambient, the front face and plate become hot.
5.2 Setting the Temperature
Press “UP” or “DOWN” buttons to change the change the temperature set-point value. When the set-point
temperature is changed the controller will switch the CALsys 1700 ON or OFF to raise or lower the temperature. The
displayed temperature will gradually change until it reaches the setpoint temperature. The temperature bath
requires 15 to 20 minutes to reach the set-point depending on the span. Another 10 to 15 minutes is required to
stabilize the temperature bath within ± 2.0ºC of the set-point.
[!] Warning : Do not connect or disconnect while power is on. Do not disconnect power when blackbody is
hot and fans are running.
5.3 Operating Instruction
ŸAfter the completely installation.
ŸConnect the 'CALsys 1700' to a suitable power supply. ON the Mains switch located at back side with power
entry.
ŸSet the desire temperature value in PID by using UP & Down key.
ŸAim the reference (Master) standard infrared temperature sensor to the target area.
ŸPV (Present value) display in controller will gradually rise until it reaches the set point temperature. The
controller takes some times to reach the set-point depending on the span. Furnace is stable when PV is equal to
SV (Set Value).
ŸMaster sensor take some times to reach the set point temperature and stable at temperature near about
controller set temperature.
ŸWhen temperature of the master and UUC (Unit under calibration) are stable record the readings of master
sensor.
ŸCompare the UUC reading with the master's reading & find out the error by comparison method.
ŸReset the controller and / or repeat the calibration for another calibration point or for another sensor.
ŸWhen the calibration is complete, reset the controller to 0°C & wait until the unit has cooled to below 100°C,
before moving the 'CALsys 1700 to new location the 'CALsys 1700' must be cooled below 100°C before it can
be put back into its carrying case.
ŸNOTE : Always use a reference IR thermometer for comparison calibration method.3
[!] Warning : Do not exceed the maximum temperature above 1700°C.

indicates the desired temperature or set point.
6.2 Altering the Set point
To change the set point of the controller use the UP and DOWN keys to raise and lower the set point to the required
value. The lower display changes to indicate the new set point.
6.3 Monitoring the Controller Status
A row indicate the controllers status as follows

7. Maintenance & Trouble shooting
7.1 Maintenance
ŸThe calibration instrument has been designed with the utmost care. Ease of operation and simplicity of
maintenance have been a central theme in the product development. Therefore, with proper care the
instrument should require very little maintenance. Avoid operating the instrument in an oily, wet, dirty, or dusty
environment.
ŸIf the outside of the instrument becomes soiled, it may be wiped clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do
not use harsh chemicals on the surface which may damage the paint.
ŸAvoid knocking or dropping the calibrator.
ŸIf the mains supply cord becomes damaged, replace it with a cord with the appropriate gauge wire for the
current of the instrument.
ŸDepending on the environment in which it is used, periodic cleaning is recommended. Cleaning may be
accomplished by the use of a small dry paint brush.
7.2 Trouble Shooting
1. Unit Fails to Operate
Check fuse if it is tripped switch is ON. If not power ON of calsys 1700 consult us.
2. Unit Unstable
Controller parameter has been interfered, consult us.
3. If the temperature of the calibrator is not rising
(a) The heating element may be open.
(b) The thermocouple may be open.
(c) The Thyristor may be not giving open.
(d) Transformer not giving open.
(e) The controller may not be giving output.
(f) The ambient temperature inside the chamber is raised and safety controller switched OFF the power.
