PP017/PP018 Passive Probe EC Declaration of Conformity Compliance was demonstrated to the specification as listed in the Official Journal of the European Communities: Low Voltage Directive 2006/95/EC. EN 61010-031/A1:2008 Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control and laboratory use – Part 031: Safety requirements for handheld probe assemblies for electrical measurement and test.
Instruction Manual Do not use in wet or explosive atmospheres. Avoid physical injury. The probe tip is extremely sharp. Use care when handling to prevent injury, including accidental skin puncture. For indoor use only. Cleaning Use the following guidelines: Clean only the exterior of the probe, cables, and accessories. Use a soft cotton cloth moistened with a mild detergent and water solution. Do not allow any portion of the probe to be submerged at any time.
PP017/PP018 Passive Probe Probe Compensation Proper compensation of the probe is required to assure amplitude accuracy of the waveform being measured by matching the probe to the oscilloscope’s input capacitance. Compensation should be adjusted whenever the probe is connected to or transferred between oscilloscopes. Low Frequency (LF) 1. Apply a 1 kHz square wave to the probe or connect to the oscilloscope’s calibrator output. 2.
Instruction Manual High Frequency (HF) High frequency should rarely require adjustment. However, if adjustment is required: 1. Apply a 1 MHz square wave to the probe (< 0.7 ns rise-time). 2. Adjust the right trimmer (HF) located on the PP017probe body: or both trimmers on the PP018 BNC Box (HF2 or HF1): until you achieve a flat-topped square wave per the center illustration in the figure below.
