SPECIFICATIONS

For convenience to the user, the pertinent speci

fi

 cations are given in an 

OPERATING GUIDE

 xed to the 

case of the instrument.  Figure 2.1 shows a typical example.

 Switch  type: 

 Multiple solid silver alloy contacts, continuous 
rotation 

Switch capacitance:

<1 pF between contacts

SPECIFICATIONS

 Operation: 

 If switches have not been operated for an extended 
period of time, they should be rotated a few times 
in both directions to restore contact resistance to 
speci

fi

 cations. 

 Environmental  conditions: 

  Operating  conditions: 

  +10 to +40°C, <80% RH 

 Storage  conditions: 

  -20 to +65°C  

 Terminals: 

3  Low-thermal-emf tellurium-copper binding 
posts with standard 3/4 inch spacing, plus shield 
terminal; connections on the rear of the instrument 
are available (RO option).   -K Option: Kelvin 
connection is available as an option with     5 binding 
posts
