16-2 Calibration Series 2600 System SourceMeters Reference Manual
2600S-901-01 Rev. A / May 2006 Return to Section 16 topics
Introduction
Use the procedures in this section to calibrate the Series 2600 (Models 2601,
2602, 2611, and 2612). The procedures require accurate test equipment to
measure precise DC voltages and currents.
WARNING The information in this section is intended for qualified service
personnel only. Do not attempt these procedures unless you
are qualified to do so. Some of these procedures may expose
you to hazardous voltages.
Environmental conditions
Temperature and relative humidity
Conduct the calibration procedures at an ambient temperature of 18-28°C (65-
82°F) with relative humidity of less than 70% unless otherwise noted.
Warm-up period
Allow the Series 2600 to warm up for at least two hours before performing
calibration.
If the instrument has been subjected to temperature extremes (those outside the
ranges stated above), allow additional time for the instrument’s internal
temperature to stabilize. Typically, allow one extra hour to stabilize a unit that is
10°C (18°F) outside the specified temperature range.
Also, allow the test equipment to warm up for the minimum time specified by the
manufacturer.
Line power
The Series 2600 requires a line voltage of 100V to 240V at line frequency of 50Hz
or 60Hz. The instrument must be calibrated within this range.
