The new 9230 Gallium Maintenance System works with Fluke Calibration's Model 5943 Stainless Steel Gallium Cell to provide melting plateaus that last a week, with results approaching what can be achieved in a Fluke Calibration maintenance bath. Not a day. Not a day-and-a-half. One week.

The Model 5943 Stainless Steel Gallium Cell holds a gallium sample that is 99.99999+ % pure. The gallium is sealed in a PTFE envelope in a high purity argon atmosphere, which is itself sealed inside a stainless steel housing. This double-sealing method reduces leaching into the gallium sample and ensures a life of ten years or longer for the cell.

• One week plateau duration
• Results approaching what can be achieved in a Fluke Calibration maintenance bath
• Double-sealed to reduce leaching into the gallium sample
• No hassle automatic realizations
