Practi-Cal Dry-Well & Surface Sensor Calibrator

Unmatched Versatility for Any Sensor

The hallmark of the EDL Practi-Cal Dry-Well Calibrator is its ability to accommodate the calibration of virtually any surface or insertion sensor, regardless of style, shape, or size. Thanks to a thoughtfully engineered design and a suite of custom inserts, this unit allows seamless testing of all your temperature devices. From standard insertion probes to custom-sized sensors, the PRI adapts to your workflow, allowing you never to compromise precision for convenience.

  • Customizable Wells: Engineered inserts are available to fit nearly any sensor dimension. Our team is ready to assist you in ordering custom wells, ensuring compatibility with your specific calibration requirements.
  • Standard Removable Well: The standard configuration accommodates three 1/4” sensors plus one removable (easy to calibrate) reference sensor, making multi-sensor calibrations efficient and straightforward.
  • Surface Sensor Testing: Ample surface area provides a stable and uniform surface, ideal for accurate surface sensor verification, not hot plate calibration, but true calibration of surface sensors guarantees consistent and precise results.

Custom Dry-Well Calibrator Blocks

EDL takes flexibility a step further by offering a comprehensive selection of custom dry well calibrator blocks. These blocks are compatible with any dry well calibrator and are available in your choice of Copper, Brass, or Stainless Steel—each chosen for optimum thermal properties and durability.

  • Precision-Engineered: Each block is drilled to your exact specifications, ensuring the proper clearance for your sensors. For example, a 0.25” diameter sensor fits perfectly in a well drilled to 0.257”.
  • Custom Sizes: Wells can be manufactured to both metric and unusual standard sizes, so your calibration setup is always tailored to your needs.
  • Surface Calibrator Insert: Special surface calibrator inserts with embedded reference thermocouples are available, empowering you to perform surface calibrations with utmost accuracy.

Exceptional Performance Across a Wide Temperature Range

Designed for demanding environments, the PRI-2 offers an impressive operating range from ambient temperatures up to 650 °C (1200 °F) with its precision-machined brass block. Our PRI-1 is ideal for temperatures from ambient up to 350 °C on a precision-machined aluminum block.

Whether you’re calibrating at low or high temperatures, the PRI calibrator maintains its accuracy and stability throughout the entire span.

  • Expanded Uncertainty: Achieve uncertainties as low as ±1.0 °C across the whole temperature range, ensuring your devices are always within specification.
  • Unit is drilled to accommodate an independent PRT up to 3/16” diameter.
    • This allows for easy recalibration as needed.
  • Large 3” testing area for Surface Style Sensors, making testing a breeze.
  • These high-performance calibrators utilize a series of internal sensors to allow us to extrapolate the actual surface temperature of the calibration block. This unit has a one-year warranty, and we offer classes and certification programs.
