B&K PRECISION LCR
Frequently asked questions
Common questions about B&K PRECISION LCR from 3G Electric.
What measurement ranges do B&K Precision LCR meters cover?
B&K Precision LCR meters supplied by 3G Electric cover capacitance from 4 pF to 1 F, inductance from 4 µH to 1,000 H, and resistance from 0.01 Ω to 100 MΩ, depending on the model. For example, the 880 measures 4 pF to 20 mF, 4 µH to 1,000 H, and 0.4 Ω to 10 MΩ, while the 894 and 895 extend to 1 F and 100 MΩ. Always verify the specific model's datasheet for exact ranges.
Do B&K Precision LCR meters include NIST-traceable calibration?
Some models, such as the B&K Precision 894 and 895, are supplied with NIST-traceable calibration. Other models like the 878B, 879B, 880, and 891 may not include this as standard. Check the product specifications or contact 3G Electric to confirm calibration options for your required model.
What connectivity options are available on B&K Precision LCR meters?
B&K Precision LCR meters offer various connectivity options. The 878B, 879B, and 880 include USB ports for data transfer. The 891 adds wireless connectivity alongside USB. Models like the 894 and 895 may include RS-232 or USB interfaces. These features enable data logging and remote control in automated test setups.
Can B&K Precision LCR meters measure ESR and dissipation factor?
Yes, B&K Precision LCR meters typically measure equivalent series resistance (ESR), dissipation factor (D), and quality factor (Q) in addition to L, C, and R. For example, the 894 and 895 models provide these parameters. Check the specific model's manual for the full list of measurement functions.
What test frequencies do B&K Precision LCR meters support?
B&K Precision LCR meters support multiple test frequencies, typically including 100 Hz, 120 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, and 100 kHz, depending on the model. The 878B and 879B offer up to 10 kHz, while the 880, 891, 894, and 895 extend to 100 kHz. Higher frequencies are useful for measuring small capacitance and inductance values.
