CRYO-CAL®-2-LI Cryostat Calibrator

The EDL Comparison Cryostat (CRYO-CAL®-2-LI) revolutionizes cryogenic calibration by offering a passively cooled, liquid nitrogen-driven alternative to traditional and costly compressor-based systems. This pioneering design allows users to easily calibrate temperature measurement devices from 77 K (-196 °C) up to ambient, all at a fraction of the cost and complexity associated with cascade systems.

Unlike conventional baths, the CRYO-CAL-2-LI eliminates the need for large quantities of special fluids or cumbersome refrigeration equipment. With less than approximately 13 liters of liquid nitrogen, precise comparison calibrations are possible at any temperature above 77 K (-196 °C), including the notoriously challenging 113 K (-160 °C) range. The robust, maintenance-free design means there are no pumps to service, no moving parts to fail, and no hidden costs for specialized coolants—making this calibrator ideal for both routine and critical calibration tasks.

Engineered for Excellence

EDL’s legacy of precision and reliability dates back to 1943. Every CRYO-CAL-2-LI is expertly crafted and rigorously tested by seasoned craftsmen who understand the demands of advanced temperature measurement. This commitment to excellence ensures that your calibrator delivers consistent performance, year after year. The CRYO-CAL-2-LI Cryostat Calibrator embodies this tradition, delivering accuracy, dependability, and exceptional value. Trust EDL to reduce the uncertainty of your measurements and support all your temperature calibration needs.
