User ’s Guide

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The CL210 is designed to be a complete process
voltage calibrator delivering high accuracy in a small
easy to use package. Its microprocessor based
circuitry makes it a snap to select a voltage output or
input range and make large or small output changes
without unnecessary complexity.

Voltage can be sourced or read on two ranges, either
100 millivolts or 10 volts.

When operated in the Source mode the Step and
Scroll keys allow the user to make both large and
small incremental output changes quickly to
expedite a calibration routine.

INSTALLATION

Remove the Packing List and verify that all
equipment has been received. If there are any
questions about the shipment, please call Omega’s
Customer Service Dept. at 1-800-826-6342.

When you receive the shipment, inspect the
container and equipment for any signs of damage.
Note any evidence of rough handling in transit.
Immediately report any damage to the shipping
agent.

NOTE: The carrier will not honor any claims unless all
shipping material is saved for their examination. After
examining and removing contents, save packing material
and carton in the event reshipment is necessary.

SET-UP

Before beginning, become familiar with the keypad
layout and the configuration of the input/output
jacks. Remember, these jacks are used in multiple
configurations so pay careful attention to how the
test leads are connected for the specific application.

OPERATING PROCEDURE

1. Turn on power and select either the Input or
Output mode.

2. Press the Range key to select either the 10 volt or
100 millivolt range.

3. Connections are the same for both input or output
modes of operation. The black jack is negative (-)
and the red jack is positive (+).

4. When operated in the Source mode, the Step and
Scroll keys are used to set one desired output.
Use the Step key to make large changes and the
Scroll key for smaller changes. Holding the Scroll
key for several seconds will cause the scroll rate to
speed up, facilitating adjustments among the
stepped outputs.

OPERATING MODES

1. When operating in the Voltage Source mode the
CL210 can drive loads accurately up to 1mA. The
maximum current drive is approximately 20 mA
at reduced accuracy.

FIGURE 1 - Voltage Source Mode

2. The CL210 can also be used to accurately read DC
voltages on either the 100 millivolt or 10 volt
ranges as shown in Figure 2.

FIGURE 2 - Reading a Voltage Input

NOTE: If the input voltage being read exceeds 25 volts
the input protection circuit will be activated and the
internal fuse may blow. Contact Martel if this is
suspected.

ACCURACY

The CL210 is checked against an NIST traceable
reference before shipment to verify that each range
falls within its 0.025%, ±1 LSD specification.

Long term accuracy (beyond 1 year) should remain
within 0.05%, ±1 LSD. All of these ratings are based
on a 25°C ambient temperature. Therefore,
allowances must be made for error caused by wide
temperature variations.

MAINTENANCE

Generally, with normal usage, this calibrator should
hold its rated specifications for at least 12 months.
Beyond this, it should remain within 1.5X of its
specification over its useful life, provided it is not
abused or tampered with. If after the stated warranty
period, the device falls out of calibration, it can be
returned to Omega for re-calibration. Please call
1-800-826-6342 for pricing and return information.
