LCR vs ESR Meter - Page 1. The good thing about having an ESR is you can probably check all the electro's of something you are renovating in about 5 minutes, and you might easily find some capacitors worth replacing. Without the meter, you would leave the old caps and it is possible that might lead to problems. If you have one, and you find high ESR capacitors, it may have paid for itself when you look at the debugging time you have probably saved. Rather then looking for more instruments to buy, why don't you look for an old good quality bit of gear that needs fixing, that you could resell on ebay if you like. Something that is also interesting, but that is build from discrete parts and that has service manuals you can download. This would include a lot of old HP and Fluke gear. I will just give some examples. In the past, I have seen some Fluke 5.
B's go really cheap and the cheap ones always need a lot of work. What is it? Something quite different from what you are used to. It is an AC thermal transfer standard. Basically it means as long as you can measure DC volts to better then 0. Hp E3610a Power Supply Manual 23-110중고계측기 매매 및 계측기렌탈 상담. 250kHz ~최대 4GHz 옵션을 위한 업그레이드 경로를 갖춘 유연하고 확장 가능한 아키텍처 4GHz의 전자 감쇄기, 내장형 펑션 발생기. Download 77 Hp Power Supply PDF manuals. User manuals, Hp Power supply Operating guides and Service manuals. AC source to 0. 0. RMS accuracy. That is probably an order of magnitude better then any modern sub $1. Better then most of the over $1. The old ones always have leaking and shorted Ni. Cd batteries that need to be replaced with new Ni. Cds (about $3. 5 on ebay), and that probably means there will be some corrosion on one of the boards to be cleaned. Switches probably need to be checked and cleaned. Also they require a Mercury battery as a stable voltage source. Mercury batteries have now been banned, but many of the 1. V IC regulator have a good enough short term stability as a replacement. If the thermal sensor is dead, then you are out of luck, but the 5. B comes with a hair trigger protection circuit, so hopefully the sensor is OK. Here is another suggestion : http: //www. HP- 4. 9G- Graphing- Calculator- Defective- /4. Calculators& hash=item. These HP4. 9G calculators had a common problem. An chronic leaking electro (lead type - not surface mount) connected to the backup memory stops the calculator from starting. Replace it and the calculator is like new. If the symptoms are that the calculator won't start, and it looks like it hasn't been used that much, there is a very good chance it is the capacitor. $3. It is functionally about the same as HP's current to of the range calculator, so working it is pretty neat. Things like HP power supplies. If you find a broken one and fix it, they are easy to sell. So if anything is busted other then the mains transformer or the meters, an old power supply can be fixed. It all comes down to finding something you will find interesting, otherwise it just feels like hard work. Fixing the 2. 23. HV circuits. Might be the type of job you leave for later.
