  • Page 14 General Information When to Calibrate accuracy specifications. Change in the environment (especially temperature) between calibration and measurement is the major cause in calibration accuracy degradation. The major effect is a change in the physical length of external and internal cables. Other important causes are dirty and damaged test port connectors and calibration standards.

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Electrostatic Discharge Electrostatic Discharge Protection against ESD (electrostatic discharge) is essential while connecting, inspecting, or cleaning connectors attached to a static-sensitive circuit (such as those found in test sets). Static electricity can build up on your body and can easily damage sensitive internal circuit elements when discharged.

  • Page 23: Visual Inspection

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Visual Inspection Visual Inspection Visual inspection and, if necessary, cleaning should be done every time a connection is made. Metal particles from the connector threads may fall into the connector when it is disconnected. One connection made with a dirty or damaged connector can damage both connectors beyond repair.

  • Page 24: Inspect Female Connectors

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Cleaning Connectors Inspect Female Connectors Pay special attention to the contact fingers in the female center conductor. These can be bent or broken, and damage to them is not always easy to see. A connector with damaged contact fingers will not make good electrical contact and must be replaced.

  • Page 25: Connections

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections Use a lint-free swab or cleaning cloth moistened with isopropyl alcohol to remove any dirt or stubborn contaminants on a connector that cannot be removed with compressed air or nitrogen. Refer to Table 6-2 on page 6-5 for part numbers for cleaning swabs.

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections resistance. 6. The preliminary connection is tight enough when the mating plane surfaces make uniform, light contact. Do not overtighten this connection. A connection in which the outer conductors make gentle contact at all points on both mating surfaces is sufficient.

Figure 3-3 Using the Torque Wrench 5. Apply force perpendicular to the wrench handle. This applies torque to the connection through the wrench.

  • Page 28: How To Separate A Connection

    Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Handling and Storage Do not pivot the wrench handle on your thumb or other fingers, otherwise you apply an unknown amount of torque to the connection when the wrench reaches its break point. Do not twist the head of the wrench relative to the outer conductor mating plane.
