5.2
Bath Environment
The 7009 Bath is a precision instrument which should be located in an appro-
priate environment. The location should be free of drafts, extreme temperatures
and temperature changes, dirt, etc. The surface where the bath is placed must
be level.
If used at higher temperatures where fluid vaporization is significant, use of a
fume hood is recommended.
5.3
Bath Preparation and Filling
The 7009 bath is designed for use with standard resistors, therefore, the soft
cutout of the instrument has been set at the factory to 50°C to protect standard
resistors placed in the bath. In order to use the bath for other calibration pur-
poses, the user should insure that the soft cutout is adjusted appropriately for
the application.
The 7009 Bath is not provided with a fluid. Various fluids are available from
Fluke Calibration and other sources. Depending on the desired temperature
range, any of the following fluids, as well as others, may be used in the bath:
• Water
• Ethylene Glycol/Water
• Methanol
• Mineral oil
