4 / 4
Separation of an RF Cable from the HR Probe
Required tools:
-
Open-end wrench 1/4 inch
-
Open-end wrench 8 mm (5/16 inch)
Do not use the torque wrench to loosen the connection!
1. Use the 0.25 inch open-end wrench to prevent the probe from rotating.
2. Use the 8 mm (5/16 in.) open-end wrench to loosen the connection.
3. Complete the process by hand, turning only the connector nut with your
fingers.
4. Carefully pull the connectors apart (do not tilt or twist).
Operational Notes
Reproducible and reliable conditions are obtained when the probe tip is placed
vertically and centrally on an RF trace. If the probe tip is placed directly on the RF
trace a defined distance (about 0.5 mm) between the RF trace and the measuring
electrode can be achieved.
Resonance processes can be excited in the case of asymmetrical placement and
with PCBs whose width is in the range of one centimeter (the ground plane of
PCBs which are too small can be increased by connecting them electrically with a
larger ground plane).
The measuring tip is decoupled from the probe shaft. Touching the probe near the
probe tip may interfere with the probe function.
The measuring cable must be suitable for this frequency range. The measuring
cable is available on request.
