Calibration Manual

Testing Temperature Function (1587 FC/1587 Only)

Use the following procedure to verify that the UUT measures temperature within
the published specification.
1. Connect the K-Type thermocouple to the temperature input of the UUT
To ensure an accurate measurement the UUT and thermocouple
connector must be at the same temperature.
2. After connecting the thermocouple to the UUT and the Calibrator, allow the
3. Turn the rotary switch to D, and press G to select temperature mode.
4. Put the calibrator in the thermocouple function, and set the output

Testing the Discharge Circuit

The following Discharge Circuit Test is a safety-related test that verifies input jack
wiring to the PCA, the RSOB contacts, RSOB pads on the PCA, and other active
discharge components on the PCA.
To prevent damage to the Test DMM DO NOT press 
during the following procedure.
1. Connect the Test DMM to the INSULATION terminals (+ and -) on the UUT.
2. Set the Test DMM to measure resistance.
3. Turn the rotary switch to INSULATION.
4. Verify that the Test DMM reading is between 2500 Ω and 3500 Ω .

Testing the Insulation Function

To avoid electric shock hazard at the INSULATION output
terminals, do not press  when the rotary switch is set to
INSULATION.
To prevent damage to the calibrator do not use the 5500A or
other standard calibrators for the insulation tests.
To prevent damage to the 9100A make sure it is in the
Insulation Test mode prior to pushing .

The UUT display reading should be within the limits of 21.8 °C to 24.2 °C.
