Datasheet: DCN1000N series: Absolute And Differential Temperature Blackbodies

The DCN1000N extended area blackbodies are differential and absolute infrared reference sources. They can be used as low temperature infrared reference sources. They consist of an emissive head which temperature is controlled via an electronic unit with real time adjusted PID regulator. The emissive head also includes a target support.

The emissive surface temperature is controlled with high precision and stability at temperatures below or above target temperature. Both the target and the emissive surface temperatures are measured in real time thanks to high precision calibrated Pt sensors.

Various sizes of emissive area are available to suit applications such as thermal imager characterisation with MRTD, LSF and NETD targets, focal plane array calibration, infrared sensor non uniformity correction, etc.
