SPECTRAL SYSTEM FOR THE ON-SITE CHARACTERIZATION OF A VARIABLE TEMPERATURE BLACKBODY

S. Ugur, S. Oguz

Abstract

Variable temperature blackbodies are used mostly in Turkish glass and steel industries in order to calibrate their pyrometers which are used to monitor the production process. To meet the ISO-9000 requirements, these process devices have to be calibrated periodically and this requires a variable temperature blackbody, which is traceable to the National Institute. This paper describes a radiometric calibration/characterization of a variable temperature black body used in Turkish industry by using a simple portable system.
