Page 5: Overview
This chapter provides the basic operation procedures and describes names and functions on the screen display. Product Introduction LCR Elite1 (“the metre”) is a portable impedance measuring device for incoming inspection of components, quality control, and laboratory use. It is capable of measuring resistance, capacitance or inductance with 3 test frequencies (100Hz, 1kHz and 10kHz). It has a basic accuracy better than 0.5% for resistance and 1% for capacitance and inductance measurements. -

2. Wipe the tips with a clean swab dipped in alcohol. 3. Wipe the case with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Note Do not use abrasives or solvents when clean the metre. LCR Elite1 User Manual - ver 1.1... -
Page 10: Making Measurements
To avoid electrical hazards and possible damage to the metre or to the equipment under test, always discharge the capacitor to be tested before measuring. For in circuit measurement, always disconnect circuit power and discharge all high-voltage capacitors before testing. LCR Elite1 User Manual - ver 1.1... -
