Overview
4 5502A Multi-Product Calibrator
Edit knob allows you
to vary the output.
When editing, the dif-
ference between the
original output and
the edited output is
computed automatically
and displayed in the
control window.
The control window displays a variety
of status messages, soft key menus, and
status and other auxiliary information.
MULT [X] and DIV[÷]
keys simplify stepping
up and down in decade
multiples of any output
setting, and let you step up
or down to the next range
in a 1-2-5 sequence for
oscilloscope calibration.
Soft keys allow access to the menus in the control
windows, letting you select parameters such as offset,
waveforms, phase, thermocouple or RTD type. PREV
MENU lets you step backward through these menus.
The bright, backlit LCD display is
easy to read from all angles and
under a variety of light conditions.
Ergonomically designed,
rugged handles make the
5502A easy to transport.
Temperature measurement modes calibrate
thermocouple simulators and can also document
environmental conditions present at the time of
calibration, as required by all quality standards.
Control output by
pressing STBY
and OPR keys.
Calculator-style
keypad makes
it easy to enter
values.
Press the SCOPE
key for on-demand
oscilloscope calibration
(optional).
Internal circuitry protects
against user error
Reverse power protection, check before
connect, immediate output discon-
nection, and fuse protection on the
output terminals offers “mistake proof”
protection against common user errors.
This protection is for applied external
voltages up to ± 300 V peak.
Using soft keys
you can access
a “SPEC” menu
lets you view
the uncertainty
for the present
value.
