Used KEITHLEY 485 #293639624 for sale

KEITHLEY 485 is an electronic test equipment that is used to measure the electrical characteristics of mechanical systems. It is used to measure the resistance and current of resistive elements, as well as voltage and current on capacitive or inductive components. The instrument operates by applying a known stimulus to a circuit or component, then measuring the resulting signal response. This response is referred to as a waveform, which is created from the reference input and the measured output. 485 is capable of measuring a variety of parameters including current, voltage, power, resistance, temperature, and frequency. It features a four-lead resistance measurement external terminal, allowing for direct current injection for accurate resistance measurement. The test equipment also features a temperature-measuring terminal for accurate temperature measurement of electrically heated elements. Additionally, a range of optional accessories are available for KEITHLEY 485, such as current probes, temperature probes, and differential voltage probes. 485 offers a variety of measurement functions, such as DC Voltage, AC Voltage, AC Waveform, Resistance, and Capacitance. Each of these functions are adjustable with programmable levels that can be set through the instrument's front panel or PC interface. The PC interface allows the user to easily setup and save profiles for automated measurements, as well as cycles and sequences. The test equipment is designed to offer enhanced accuracy and reliability. A built-in self-test feature automatically checks the accuracy of the instrument every time it's powered up. Additionally, the instrument offers an over-voltage protection and isolation feature, preventing damage to the instrument and test system due to unforeseen inputs. In terms of accuracy, KEITHLEY 485 offers a basic accuracy of 0.1%, plus input and offset errors from 0.03%. It offers a DC voltage resolution of 0.01V and a DC current resolution of 1mA. Regarding speed, the test equipment operates at a sampling rate of 20MS/s. This provides users with a fast and reliable way to perform testing and archiving of acquired data. The data acquired can be saved for future reference. In conclusion, 485 is a reliable and versatile electronic test equipment instrument. It offers a variety of measurement functions, reliable accuracy, and fast sample rate, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of testing tasks. Furthermore, its PC interface provides the user with a convenient way to automate test processes.
