1-1. Introduction
The Fluke Model 5500A Multi-Product Calibrator (Figure 1-1) is a precise instrument
that calibrates a wide variety of electrical measuring instruments. With the 5500A
Calibrator, you can calibrate precision multimeters that measure ac or dc voltage, ac or
dc current, ac or dc power, resistance, capacitance, and temperature. With the
Oscilloscope Calibration option, you can use the 5500A Calibrator to calibrate analog
and digital oscilloscopes. Specifications for the standard 5500A are provided at the end
of this chapter. Specifications for the Oscilloscope Option are in Chapter 6.
Warning
If the 5500A Calibrator is operated in any way not specified by
the 5500A Operators Manual or other documentation provided
by Fluke, protection provided by the 5500A may be impaired.
The 5500A Calibrator is a fully programmable precision source of the following:
•
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 0.01
µ
A to 11.0 A, with output from 10 Hz to 10 kHz.
•
DC current from 0 to ±11.0 A.
•
Resistance values from a short circuit to 330 M
Ω
.
•
Capacitance values from 330 pF to 1100
µ
F.
•
Simulated output for three types of Resistance Temperature Detectors (RTDs).
•
Simulated output for nine types of thermocouples.
Features of the 5500A Calibrator include the following:
•
Automatic meter error calculation using a simple output adjust knob.
•
Keys that multiply and divide the output value by 10 to simplify work on meters
with calibration points at decade multiples.
•
Programmable entry limits to restrict levels that may be keyed into the 5500A, to
prevent calling up a level that may be harmful to equipment or personnel.
•
Simultaneous output of voltage and current, up to 11 kW.
•
Simultaneous output of two voltages.
•
Extended bandwidth mode outputs multiple waveforms down to 0.01 Hz, and sine
waves to 2 MHz.
•
Variable phase signal output.
•
Standard IEEE-488 (GPIB) interface, complying with ANSI/IEEE Standards
488.1-1987 and 488.2-1987.
•
EIA Standard RS-232-C serial data interface for printing, displaying, or transferring
internally stored calibration constants, and for remote control of the 5500A.
•
Pass-through RS-232-C serial data interface for communicating with the Unit Under
Test (UUT).
•
Extensive automatic internal self-testing and diagnostics of analog and digital
functions.
