SOFTWARE

DESCRIPTION

A high performance portable multifunction calibrator with voltage, current, and resistance ranges.

The 1017 combines precision with simple operation, making it suitable for use in the workshop or eld.

Constructed in a compact and durable plastic case with a tilt stand/carry handle it takes up minimal bench
space and is easily transportable.

• Battery or mains operation

Five DC voltage ranges from 10mV to 100V full scale are available, each with a 6-digit (1ppm) resolution.

The DC current range is 100mA full scale with a 100nA (1ppm) resolution. Resistance from 0.01Ω to 10kΩ
is available 0.01Ω steps.

The 1017 can be powered from mains supply or by the internal rechargeable battery pack. Battery operation
enables good performance where earth loop and noise pick-up occurs. 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 12 hours
typical use. The battery condition monitored by a meter on the front panel.

STABILITY v TEMPERATURE AND TIME

Outstanding performance is due to the use of special computer selected reference diodes and the
latest in resistor technology. The special low-thermal emf terminals reduce errors when working with
microvolt signals.

DIGITAL DEVIATION CONTROL

Allows the output to be increased and decreased in % terms from 0 to +/-0.999%. This provides a direct

read-out of error and simplies the recording results for calibration certicates. It enables the user to
immediately see if the unit under test is within specication.

APPLICATIONS

The 1017 is suitable for calibrating and simulating a wide range of instruments including thermocouples,
transducers, 4-20mA and 0-10V transmitters, and platinum resistance thermometers.
