Performance verification
Use the following procedures to verify the warranted specifications of the probes. Before beginning these procedures, photocopy the test
record and use it to record the performance test results. See Test record on page 50. The recommended calibration interval is one year.
These procedures test the following specifications:
• Gain accuracy
• Rise time
Required equipment
The equipment required to perform the performance verification procedures are shown in the table below. The types and quantities of
connectors may vary depending on the specific equipment you use.
