cal accuracy of BVR11 is ± (0,1% rdg + 0,1% F.S) for voltage, with the full scale values shown in the 

Table 5.1.  

 
If suspected the device is presenting inaccurate results, the following tests should be performed: 

5.1.  Checking voltage measurement accuracy 

 

 To check the voltage measurements in both ranges, an appropriate test should be performed. 

 

In order to perform a test at ± 30 V range, please take the following steps: 

 

1.  Take a 6 V stable voltage source (6 V battery) 
2.  Connect the BVR11 device and a test battery as shown in the Figure 5.1. 
3.  Set the test on the BVR11 device as described in the Section 3.2.1: go to the Main menu, select the 

first test voltage from the Table 5.1 and start the test. Read the voltage value. 

4.  Connect the digital voltmeter and the 6 V test battery as shown in the Figure 5.2. 
5.  Read  the  voltage  value  measured  by  the  voltmeter.  Compare  the  voltage  values  measured  by  the 

voltmeter to the BVR11 measured values.  

6. 

If  voltage  values  do  not  differ  from  the  BVR11's  specified  measurement  accuracy,  the  device  is 
measuring correctly.
