Secondary Laboratory
Isotech Oceanus

The Isotech 580 Oceanus‑6PLUS is one of the most versatile calibration systems in the Isocal‑6 range. With a large 50 mm × 300 mm calibration volume, the Oceanus‑6 can operate as a dry block, stirred liquid bath, stirred ice bath, blackbody source, surface sensor calibrator, and even as an ITS‑90 fixed‑point system for Water and Gallium. This makes the Oceanus‑6PLUS a uniquely flexible and cost‑effective solution for laboratories that need to calibrate multiple sensor types using a single instrument.

Large calibration volume for maximum capability

The enlarged calibration chamber accommodates long sensors and allows multiple probes to be calibrated simultaneously. The standard insert provides six 8 mm pockets, each 250 mm deep, suitable for PRTs, thermistors and thermocouples.

Two models: BASIC (B) and SITE (S)

The Oceanus‑6PLUS is available in two versions:

BASIC (B):
Equipped with a sophisticated temperature controller with dual display for setpoint and block temperature.

SITE (S):
Includes an independent digital thermometer for connecting an external reference sensor, eliminating gradient and loading errors during dry‑block use. Additional features include:

  • > PT100 input
  • > thermocouple inputs (K, N, R, S, L, PL2, T, J, E)
  • > 4–20 mA process inputs
  • > standalone thermostat testing
  • > PC‑based thermostat testing
  • > five‑point digital probe matching

Both models support all Isocal‑6 operating modes.

Multiple calibration modes in one instrument

The Oceanus‑6PLUS can function as:

  • Dry Block Calibrator 
    ±0.03 °C
  • Stirred Liquid Bath
    ±0.025 °C
  • Stirred Ice Bath
    ±0.001 °C
  • Blackbody Source
    ±0.3 °C
  • Surface Sensor Calibrator
    ±0.5 °C
  • ITS‑90 Fixed‑Point Realization
    Water & Gallium
    Uncertainty down to ±0.0002 °C (2σ)

This level of versatility is unmatched in compact calibration systems.

Thermal performance

The Oceanus‑6PLUS offers excellent stability and fast transitions:

  • > Cools from 20 °C to –10 °C in 90 minutes
  • > Heats from –10 °C to 80 °C in 60 minutes
  • > 30‑minute stability:
  • > Dry block: ±0.03 °C
  • > Liquid bath: ±0.025 °C
  • > Ice bath: ±0.001 °C

The system meets the calibration capacity requirements of EURAMET/cg‑13.

Inserts and accessories

A wide range of inserts and accessories is available:

  • > Standard Insert (580‑06‑03)
  • > Blank Insert (580‑06‑04)
  • > Custom Insert (580‑06‑05)
  • > Adjustable Equalising Block (580‑06‑06)
