General Specifications
Environmental Requirements
Refer to your network analyzer’s standard documentation for environmental requirements.
The test set complies with all applicable safety and regulatory requirements for the intended
location of use.
• Operating Environment (Indoor Use)
• Temperature (0 to 50 °C)
• Pressure Altitude (Operation)
3,000 meters (~10,000 feet)
• The instrument can safely operate in a relative humidity of 80% for temperatures to
31 degrees C, decreasing linearly to 50% relative humidity at 40 degrees C.
Equipment Heating and Cooling
If necessary, install air conditioning and heating to maintain the ambient temperature within the
appropriate range.
Ventilation Requirements: When installing the instrument in a cabinet, the
convection into and out of the instrument must not be restricted. The ambient
temperature (outside the cabinet) must be less than the maximum operating
temperature of the instrument by 4 °C for every 100 watts dissipated in the
cabinet. If the total power dissipated in the cabinet is greater than 800 watts,
forced convection must be used.
Required Conditions for Accuracy Enhanced Measurement
Accuracy–enhanced (error–corrected) measurements require the ambient temperature of the
analyzer and test set to be maintained within ± 1 °C of the ambient temperature at calibration.
Dimensions and Space Requirements
Standard installation of the test set and analyzer includes configuration and installation on a
customer provided lab bench or table top of adequate size and strength. For weight, dimensions
and space requirements, refer to the network analyzer documentation that is used to configure
the test set.
The network analyzer is heavy. It is recommended that two individuals, or a
mechanical lift be used to lift or transport the instrument.
