DISCONTINUED ITEM-Recommended Replacement: Extech PRC15 Current and Voltage Calibrator/ Meter
The Reed R8801 Voltage/Current Calibrator is a precision handheld calibrator that can source and measure voltage and current. In the source mode, voltage up to 20V and current up to 22mA are generated and it has a high 24V compliance voltage which is ideal for powering process loops. In the measurement mode, the range and function can be easily selected, with the measured input accurately shown on the LCD display.
Common uses are to simulate a transducer or measure the current flow in a transducer loop; can also be used to check a 4-20mA system in either source or measure mode, with the 24V compliance voltage powering the loop when current source mode is selected. In the source mode, it can be used to calibrate meters, thermocouple indicators, data loggers, for signal injection, semiconductor characterisation, or as a backing off source; and in the measure mode,it can be used in the same way as a DMM.
