Page 8: Verification Kit Overview
Verification Kit Overview Verification Kit Overview The 11645A series of verification kits provide a set of standards with known characteristics, traceable to a reference (golden) standard in Keysight Technologies calibration lab. The sets of standards are used to verify your measurement calibration and also to verify that your PNA series network analyzer system is operating within its specifications. -

General Information Incoming Inspection Calibration Kit Definitions Web page at http://na.support.keysight.com/pna/caldefs/stddefs.html. addition, the calibration definitions may be entered manually from the front panel. Refer to your PNA Help system for instructions. Equipment Required but Not Supplied Cleaning supplies and various electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection devices are not supplied with the verification kit but are required to ensure successful operation of the kit. -
Page 10: Recording The Device Serial Numbers
General Information Recording the Device Serial Numbers Recording the Device Serial Numbers In addition to the kit serial number, the devices in this kit are individually serialized (serial numbers are labeled into the body of each device). Record these serial numbers in the appropriate table. Recording the serial numbers will prevent confusing the devices in this kit with similar devices from other kits. -

Page 16: Electrostatic Discharge
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 17: Visual Inspection
Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Visual Inspection Visual Inspection Examine the mating surfaces first for obvious defects or damage. If necessary, cleaning should be done every time a connection is made. Metal particles or dirt may fall onto the mating surface during the connection and disconnection process. -
Page 18: Cleaning The Mating Plane Surfaces
Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Cleaning the Mating Plane Surfaces Cleaning the Mating Plane Surfaces 1. Use Compressed Air or Nitrogen Clean mating surfaces are essential for ensuring the integrity of the waveguide. WARNING Always use protective eyewear when using compressed air or nitrogen. Use compressed air (or nitrogen) to loosen particles on the mating plane surfaces. -
Page 19: Connections
Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections Connections Good connections require a skilled operator. Instrument sensitivity and mechanical tolerances are such that slight errors in operator technique can have a significant effect on measurements and measurement uncertainties. The most common cause of measurement error is bad connections. Connecting Waveguide Devices IMPORTANT Unlike threaded devices, the WR-28, WR-22, WR-19, WR-15, and WR-10 waveguide mating planes are flanges (often precision) that you must carefully screw together. -
Page 20: How To Connect
Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections How to Connect: R-band WR-28 Always connect the waveguide with the same flange orientation. For example, always connect a device with the label facing the same direction. Follow theses recommendations for optimum connection technique: 1. - Page 21 Use, Maintenance, and Care of the Devices Connections screw. 4. In an X pattern (for equal compression), use the hex ball driver to tighten all four screws. Do not over-tighten. 5. Visually inspect the connection: a. Place an electric light or white paper behind the connection. b.
