Fluke 5520A Calibrator
The Fluke 5520A builds on the 5500A's capabilities, extending
its workload coverage even further. Its improved accuracy, expanded ranges,
and capability to calibrate 5 1/2 and 6 1/2 digit multimeters can cover
virtually all your high-performance workload, including:
- Handheld and bench meters (analog and digital) up to 6 1/2 digits
- Thermocouple and RTD thermometers
- Process calibrators
- Data loggers
- Strip and chart recorders
- Watt meters
- Power harmonics analyzers
- Current clamps and clamp meters
- Analog or digital handheld and bench oscilloscopes (with options)
- Panel meters
- Graphical multimeters
Instead of buying several standards to calibrate a variety of instruments,
Fluke multi-product calibrators can meet your needs with one compact
affordable tool.
Features
The Fluke 5520A Multi-Product Calibrator sources direct
voltage and current, alternating voltage and current with multiple waveforms
and harmonics, two simultaneous voltage outputs or voltage and current
to simulate dc and ac power with phase control, resistance, capacitance,
thermocouples and RTDs. The 5520A can also measure thermocouple temperature,
humidity (with probe) and pressure using one of 28 Fluke 700 Series pressure
modules. Three options add the capability to calibrate oscilloscopes up
to 1.1 GHz.
Wide workload coverage
Because it can calibrate so much of your workload, the 5520A
makes your calibration investment go farther. Instead of several instruments
to purchase, maintain and transport, the 5520A combines all the capability
in one compact, portable and affordable tool.
Though it can do a lot, the 5520A is simple to use. Its
front panel is logically arranged and clearly labeled. And its bright
LCD displays provide all the information you need at a glance. The 5520A
is so intuitively easy to use, you'll seldom need to consult the manual.
For almost every operation, your hand moves naturally from left to right.
Values are entered on the calculator-style keyboard. Output values can
be stepped up or down easily in even decade multiples (1-2-5 sequence
in scope mode) using the multiply and divide keys. You can even view the
uncertainty for any value at the press of a key
The basic 5520A can tackle a tremendous amount of work.
And as your workload changes, your 5520A can adapt. Three options are
available to address the calibration requirements of oscilloscopes. If
your workload is made up mostly of oscilloscopes up to 300 MHz bandwidth,
the 5500A-SC300 option is an affordable solution. If your workload extends
to 600 MHz, the 5500A-SC600 adds complete, powerful oscilloscope calibration
capability to your 5520A. The 5520A-SC1100 option enables the 5520A to
calibrate all of your oscilloscopes up to 1.1 GHz with rise times to 300
ps - even 125 ps with the 5800A/TDP tunnel diode pulser option. Any of
these options can be fitted at time of purchase, or added later as your
needs change.
If three-phase power measurement tools are part of your
workload, the 5520A can greatly simplify the task. Its phase locking capability
makes it possible to "lock" three 5520As together to simulate three phase
power up to nearly 21 kW with multiple waveforms, harmonics and precise
phase control. Using this capability, you can also "sum" the current outputs
of multiple 5520As to source 100A or more to directly verify current clamps
or power transformers.
The 5520A isn't limited to the controlled environment of
the calibration lab. It's made to go where the work is. It's compact so
it's easy to take it where the work is. Its rugged construction means
you don't have to treat it like a delicate lab instrument. And it's self-contained.
No additional test pad is required.
Every 5520A is shipped with a certificate of calibration
with results data, traceable to nationally recognized standards. When
it comes time to recalibrate your instrument, Fluke service facilities
are available worldwide to ensure the work is done right and quickly.
With quality management standards like ISO 9000, there is
a lot more to calibration than just making measurements. You also have
documentation, control and reporting requirements to meet.
Our optional Microsoft Windows¨-based 5500/CAL
simplifies the documentation of your procedures, adequacy and traceability
as required by ISO 9000 and other similar quality standards. It also collects
and reports calibration results information and helps you to consistently,
quickly and efficiently calibrate a wide variety of instruments. With
it your entire calibration process Ñ from creating and executing procedures
through results data collection and reporting û can be automated. Thousands
of procedures û and the list is growing û are included at no extra charge.
They can be run as is or used as the basis to create your own new procedures.
5500/CAL is part of a suite of applications called MET/CAL¨
Plus. 5500/CAL is designed around RS-232 instrument control and
operates with the 5500A, 5520A, and 5800A calibrators. If you need IEEE
instrument control or want to automate the calibration of additional instruments,
you can step up to MET/CAL¨. And you can add test and measurement
asset management capabilities with MET/TRACK.
All three applications are driven by a powerful, industry
standard SQL data base server, SQL Anywhere¨ from Sybase, providing
secure, dependable storage for your calibration information. And each
application is completely modular so you can set up a single application
on a personal computer or take advantage of its client/server design over
your network.
