Time Electronics Description A highly stable and accurate mains or battery powered calibrator suitable for applications requiring a precision voltage source of low internal resistance. It has five ranges up to 10 V with a resolution up to 0.01 μV. The compact and robust design make it easily portable and well suited to laboratory, field and industrial use. A carry case is available to house the instrument for transport or storage. Voltage outputs are set by selecting the range switch and dialling up the desired value on the thumbwheel switch. Output polarity may be selected using the normal/off/reverse switch. The calibrator output resistance is typically 500 mΩ on the 10 V, 1 V and 0.1 V ranges. The maximum output current that can be drawn on these ranges is limited to 25 mA maintaining specification. The lower ranges have an output resistance of 1 Ω and will supply current up to 30 mA. A precision zener diode is used as a reference source that provides an input to a F.E.T. chopper amplifier system operating in a feedback stabilised mode. The gain value is determined by a set of precision metal film resistors, selected by the 5-decade thumbwheel switch on the front panel. The output voltage is variable from 0.01 μV to 9.9999 V in 5 ranges. For complete reliability, the calibrator range switch employs two contacts in parallel for each position in case one contact fails, ensuring the calibrator will still function correctly. The 1010 output connections are via safety terminals that are compatible with 4 mm shrouded plugs, standard plugs, bare wires, and spade terminals. These terminals are specifically designed with safety features including limited opening distance and a raised flange around the metal connection surface. This ensures that the clearances are sufficient to make the exposed metal parts touch-proof. Features • 0.01 μV to 10 V in 5 ranges • Accuracy 0.02 % • 10 ppm/hr stability • 30 mA output current • Safety terminals • Battery or mains operation • 40 hours typical use between charges • Battery level indicator • Optional carry case Portable Operation The 1010 can be powered from mains supply or by the internal rechargeable battery pack. When the calibrator is plugged into the mains supply the internal batteries will automatically start to recharge. If unplugged from the mains during operation the internal batteries will continue to power the instrument. Full charge allows 40 hours typical use. An LED indicator on the front panel displays the battery condition. Applications The 1010 can be used for calibration, linearity, and gains stability measurements on DC amplifiers, digital and electronic voltmeters, data loggers and chart recorders. It’s high 10 ppm per hour stability and very low noise levels are ideal for these types of applications.
