Please read through this manual thoroughly to enable you to fully exploit the various features of your product. To the extent permitted by law Kistler accepts no liability if this instruction manual is not followed or products other than those listed under Accessories are used.
Important guidelines 2. Important guidelines It is important that the guidelines in this section be obser- ved. The information contained within this section will en- sure both personal safety and years of trouble-free ope- ration. 2.1 For your safety This device has been manufactured and tested in ac- cordance with IEC Publication 1010-1 (Safety Rules for Electronic Measuring Equipment).
Power Supply/Coupler, Type 5114 Connect the instrument only to equipment for which it was designed to be used. Additional precautions are given in Section 6 which relate to maintenance and calibration. 2.3 Using this manual It is recommended that the user reads the entire manual prior to operating the coupler.
9 V battery, AC-DC Wall mount power supply adapter and instruction manual. Type 5114 coupler operates from a 9 V battery. An exter- nal DC power source or an external AC-DC "wall mount" adapter (minimum 12 V input) may also be used.
Power Supply/Coupler, Type 5114 Table 1 below lists accessories available for Type 5114 coupler. Also refer to Type 5114 data sheet for supplied and optional accessories. Quantity Description Type/ Mat. No. Alkaline battery, 9 Volt 55129296 AC-DC wall mount power supply...
The coupler can be used with high impedance, charge mode sensors when used in conjunction with an external impedance converter e.g., the Kistler Types 557 and 558. Kistler offers a line of du- al-mode and charge amplifiers for use with charge mode sensors. Consult Kistler for more information on instru- mentation for charge-mode sensors.
9 Volt alkaline-zinc battery and accelerometer cons- tant current at 2 mA. Automatic switching between battery and external po- wer. Type 5114 will select the input with the highest vol- tage. The power conditioning stage contains a voltage conver- ter which converts the input power level (from battery or external power) to approx.
Technical information, functional description 4.2 Bias voltage display A 3.5 digit numeric indication of the bias voltage is dis- played on the front panel. See Section 5.4.2 for more de- tails. 4.3 Bias indicator (circuit integrity) The bias indicator circuit consists of voltage comparators and three LED indicators.
5.1.1 Unpacking Unpack the instrument and inspect it for any visible dama- ge caused during shipment. 5.1.2 Mounting Type 5114 coupler is designed to be used in field and laboratory locations (e.g., table, floor, etc.) without any further mounting. 5.2 Connections This section provides information on connector locations for power and input/output signals.
The unit is protected from polarity reversal. See Section 4.1 for details about this feature. 5.3 Battery operation 5.3.1 Installation and operation Type 5114 can be operated from one, 9 Volt, dry cell bat- tery. The following battery can be used. Battery type Battery life* (hours)
Power Supply/Coupler, Type 5114 Residue from battery leakage should be removed promptly and thoroughly from any surface with a damp cloth since it is caustic (potassium hydroxide, KOH) and corrosive. Caustic burns from alkaline cells must be washed promptly with large volumes of water and receive immediate medical treatment to neutralize the caustic effects.
Accelerometers have a lower output bias than standard Piezotron Sensors. This bias may be below the sensor’s nominally rated 4 volt level and will cause the 5114 "Short" LED to become lighted (Red) and a low bias value will be displayed on the digital panel meter.
Type 5114, as with other measuring instruments, should be calibrated annually to ensure accurate measurements. Kistler will calibrate the unit with sources traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). From time to time the user might want to check the instru- ment calibration to ensure accurate test results.
Storage and transportation considerations 7. Storage and transportation considerations If the instrument is to be stored for an extended period or transported, the following precautions should be taken to assure safe conditions: 1. The temperature should be maintained between –20 °C and +60 ° C. 2.
