Used AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 4980A #9217498 for sale

AGILENT / HP / HEWLETT-PACKARD / KEYSIGHT 4980A is a high precision, general purpose electronic test equipment capable of measuring electrical parameters such as voltage, current, resistance, capacitance, and power in a variety of forms. It is a double-bridge, 4-wire, dip-type, inductance-capacitance-resistance (LCR) meter designed to provide accurate and repeatable measurements of a wide range of components, both in the laboratory and in production. HP 4980A is capable of measuring from 1mHz to 10 MHz with a resolution of 0.01 Hz when using the 'High Frequency Range' setting. The bridge provides a wide dynamic range from 0-10kHz and a selectable test frequency of up to 10MHz, while the meter's full scale accuracy (1mV resolution) remains steady across the full range of the instrument's capabilities. The construction of AGILENT 4980A is reliable and robust so as to provide long-term stability and reliability. The dual bridge circuitry is well-shielded and provides effective cross-talk and interference rejection. Moreover, the meter's internal components are self-compensating, which means that the scale stability is maintained over time. KEYSIGHT 4980A is also equipped with a built-in autocalibration function that allows the instrument to be precisely calibrated. This feature eliminates the tedious manual process of adjusting each set of measurements and prevents errors due to manual adjustments. The instrument is also equipped with a large, bright LCD display which provides intuitive feedback to the user throughout the testing process. This screen also provides functions such as 'fast check', which makes multiple readings possible in one press, and the ability to store readings for comparison. The instrument's logical operating system also includes a sophisticated language which allows the user to design and execute complex, customised measurements with just a few key strokes. HEWLETT-PACKARD 4980A supports both RS232 and GPIB (IEEE 488) connections and includes software for PC data acquisition and results presentation. Its intuitive user interface and simple programming language makes the instrument easy to use, even for users with basic programming knowledge. Overall, 4980A is a reliable, user-friendly electronic test equipment. Its wide frequency range, accurate measurements, and robust construction make it ideal for a range of applications, including automatic test systems, production test, maintenance and calibration, and R&D.
