BB-100 Blackbody
All Products › BB-100
The BB-100 Thermal Reference Blackbody delivers precise, stable infrared calibration with fast temperature control across various applications.
Featuring a thermo-electric design with both heating and cooling capability, the BB-100 achieves rapid slew rates and settles to highly stable set-points with ±0.01°C precision. Its 4” aperture supports large sensors and long standoff calibration, while computer-controlled operation via USB/RS-232 enables flexible modes including automated thermal profiling and repeatable startup settings. With high emissivity (>0.95) and accurate temperature control from 0°C to 100°C, the BB-100 is ideal for calibrating infrared imagers, pyrometers, and detectors in laboratory and field environments.
