Chapter 1 Overview
The HIOKI IM3533 and IM3533-01 LCR METER is an impedance measuring instrument which achieves
high speed and high accuracy.
With measurement frequencies of 1 MHz to 200 kHz and measurement signal levels of 5 mV to 5 V, the
instrument allows you to configure a broad range of measurement conditions. Additionally, features such as
a dedicated transformer and coil measurement screen, DC resistance measurement with temperature cor-
rection, and a ANALYZER function (IM3533-01 only) make the IM3533 and IM3533-01 excellent choices for
use in a wide range of applications, from transformer and coil production lines to research and development.
Overview Chapter 1
1.1 Product Overview Features
Temperature correction function
The temperature correction function lets you perform
even more precise DC resistance measurement.
TRANSFORMER mode (p. 193)
A dedicated screen allows you to measure transform-
ers, coils, and other windings quickly and efficiently.
ANALYZER mode (IM3533-01 only) (p. 149)
The IM3533-01’s frequency sweep function lets you
measure frequency characteristics (list display only).
Wide range of measurement conditions (p. 50)
Capable of measurement under a wide range of mea-
surement conditions: measurement frequencies from 1
mHz to 200 kHz and measurement signal levels from 5
mV to 5 V.
Capable of high-speed measurement
High-speed measurement is possible.
The IM3533 and IM3533-01 can perform measure-
ments at speeds of up to 2 ms (typical values).
BIN function (p. 109)
With LCR mode, easily ranks measurement items into
up to 10 classifications based on the measurement
values.
CONTINUOUS measurement mode (p. 209)
Capable of consecutive measurements using measurement conditions stored in the memory of the instrument.
This function enables, for example, making pass/fail judgment with different measurement conditions.
(Example: Performing C-D measurement with 120 Hz and Rs measurement with 100 kHz in succession)
Low impedance can be measured with
high degree of accuracy
LCR mode includes a setting for measuring low im-
pedance with a high degree of accuracy.
Comparator function
LCR mode: (p. 102)
Capable of making HI/IN/LO pass/fail judgments
based on the measurement values for two parameters.
TRANSFORMER mode: (p. 193)
Capable of making HI/IN/LO pass/fail judgments for
calculation parameters.
Various interfaces supported
Supports the most suitable external I/O (handler interface)
for production lines, USB, GP-IB, RS-232C and LAN.
*GP-IB, RS-232C, and LAN interfaces are optional.
