Introduction
Warning
To prevent possible electrical shock, fire, or personal injury,
read all safety Information before you use the Product.
The 5502A Calibrator (“the Product” or “the Calibrator”) in Figure 1-1 can be configured
to source:
•
DC voltage from 0 V to
±
1020 V.
•
AC voltage from 1 mV to 1020 V, with output from 10 Hz to 500 kHz.
•
AC current from 29
μ
A to 20.5 A, with variable frequency limits.
•
DC current from 0 to
±
20.5 A.
•
Resistance values from a short circuit to 1100 M
Ω
.
•
Capacitance values from 220 pF to 110 mF.
•
Simulated output for eight types of Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs).
•
Simulated output for 11 types of thermocouples.

Figure 1-1. 5502A Multi-Product Calibrator
Calibrator features include:
•
Automatic meter error calculation, with reference values that you can select.
•
and
keys that change the output value to predetermined values for various
functions.
•
Programmable entry limits. These limits do not let you go above preset output limits.
•
Voltage and current that can be output at the same time, to an equivalent of 20.9 kW.
•
10 MHz reference input and output. Use this to input a high-accuracy 10 MHz
reference to move the frequency accuracy to the 5502A, or to put one or more
Calibrators in the control of a master 5502A.
•
The power to output two voltages at the same time.
•
Extended bandwidth mode outputs multiple waveforms down to 0.01 Hz, and sine
