Limited Warranty & Limitation of Liability

Each product from Fluke Corporation, (“Fluke”) is warranted to be free from defects in material and

workmanship under normal use and service. The warranty period is one year for Dry-Well Calibrators. The

warranty period begins on the date of the shipment. Parts, product repairs, and services are warranted for 90

days. The warranty extends only to the original buyer or end-user customer of a Fluke authorized reseller,

and does not apply to fuses, disposable batteries or to any other product, which in Fluke’s opinion, has been

misused, altered, neglected, or damaged by accident or abnormal conditions of operation or handling. Fluke

warrants that software will operate substantially in accordance with its functional specications for 90 days

and that it has been properly recorded on non-defective media. Fluke does not warrant that software will be

error free or operate without interruption. Fluke does not warrant calibrations on the Field Metrology Well.

Fluke authorized resellers shall extend this warranty on new and unused products to end-user customers

only but have no authority to extend a greater or different warranty on behalf of Fluke. Warranty support is

available if product is purchased through a Fluke authorized sales outlet or Buyer has paid the applicable

international price. Fluke reserves the right to invoice Buyer for importation costs of repairs/replacement

parts when product purchased in one country is submitted for repair in another country.

Fluke’s warranty obligation is limited, at Fluke’s option, to refund of the purchase price, free of charge

repair, or replacement of a defective product which is returned to a Fluke authorized service center within

the warranty period.

To obtain warranty service, contact your nearest Fluke authorized service center or send the product, with

a description of the difculty, postage, and insurance prepaid (FOB Destination), to the nearest Fluke

authorized service center. Fluke assumes no risk for damage in transit. Following warranty repair, the

product will be returned to Buyer, transportation prepaid (FOB Destination). If Fluke determines that the

failure was caused by misuse, alteration, accident or abnormal condition or operation or handling, Fluke will

provide an estimate or repair costs and obtain authorization before commencing the work. Following repair,

the product will be returned to the Buyer transportation prepaid and the Buyer will be billed for the repair

and return transportation charges (FOB Shipping Point).

THIS WARRANTY IS BUYER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY AND IS IN LIEU OF

ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO

ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR

PURPOSE. FLUKE SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SPECIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL. OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES, INCLUDING LOSS OF DATA, WHETHER ARISING

Before You Start

Symbols Used

1 Before You Start

1.1 Introduction

The Fluke 9100S Mid-Range Field Calibrator may be used as a portable instrument or

bench top temperature calibrator for calibrating thermocouple and RTD temperature

probes. This instrument is small enough to use in the eld, and accurate enough to use

in the lab. Calibrations may be done over a range of 35°C to 375°C (95°F to 707°F).

Temperature display and setability resolution is 0.1 degrees.

The instrument features:

 Rapid heating and cooling

 Prop stand

 RS-232 interface capability

Built in programmable features include:

 Temperature scan rate control

 Eight set-point memory

 Adjustable readout in °C or °F

The temperature is accurately controlled by Fluke’s digital controller. The controller

uses a precision platinum RTD as a sensor and controls the well temperature with a

triac driven heater.

The LED front panel continuously shows the current well temperature. The

temperature may be set, using the control buttons, to any desired temperature within

the instrument’s range. Multiple fault protection devices insure user and instrument

safety and protection.

This dry-well calibrator was designed for portability, low cost, and ease of operation.

Through proper use, the instrument will provide continuous accurate calibration

of temperature sensors and devices. The user should be familiar with the safety

guidelines and operating procedures of the calibrator as described in the instruction

manual.
