RIGOL General Safety Summary CAUTION This device involves the high-voltage measurement. To use the device safely and ensure your personal safety, please carefully read and observe the instructions specified in this manual before using the device. Safety Terms and Symbols Before using the device, read the following safety notices carefully.
RIGOL Safety Precautions CAUTION Beware of high voltages to avoid electric shock. Understand the maximum input voltage for the probe. Do not operate in wet conditions or in an explosive atmosphere. Before use, please check whether the exterior of the probe is damaged. If damaged, stop using it.
RIGOL General Inspection Inspect the packaging RIGOL has carried out strict inspections on each product before leaving the factory. When you receive the product, please check whether the packaging is intact. If the packaging has been damaged, do not dispose...
High bandwidth to meet the requirements of most high-frequency test system PHA0150: 70 MHz; PHA1150: 100 MHz; PHA2150: 200MHz Diversified ranges and two attenuations to meet the requirements for most common-mode test circuit 50X: 150 V (DC + peak AC);...

RIGOL the alarm can be disabled manually Auto memory function, capable of automatically saving the working status that was set before it is shutdown Note When the bandwidth is limited to 5 MHz, the internal output circuit of the PHA series probe is connected to a 5 MHz low-pass network.
RIGOL Probe Components The PHA series probe consists of PHA0150, PHA1150 and PHA2150. This manual takes PHA1150 as an example to introduce the components of the PHA series probe. High-Voltage Differential Input Cable Voltage Max. Differential Mode Input Voltage-to-Earth Maximum Input...
FULL: indicates the full specified bandwidth of the probe. For PHA0150, its full bandwidth is 70 MHz; for PHA1150, its full bandwidth is 100 MHz; for PHA2150, its full bandwidth is 200 MHz. 5 MHz: When measuring the low-frequency signal, to reduce the interference of the high-frequency signal, you can select the 5 MHz bandwidth.

RIGOL Audible Overrange Alarm On/Off Button ON: Turns on the alarm beeper. OFF: Turns off the alarm beeper. When ON, an audible alarm will be sounded once the voltage under test exceeds the probe range. Load Impedance The output impedance of the probe is 50 . When the input impedance of the load (e.g.
RIGOL To Use the Probe Before using the current probe, make sure to refer to Safety Precautions. Preparation for Measurement Evaluate the amplitude of the voltage under test and check whether it is within the voltage range of the probe. If it is beyond the max. range of the probe, please replace a proper probe.

RIGOL the probe range. Then adjust the range of the instrument based on the voltage under test. Select a proper probe clip according to the object under test. Connect one end of the clip to the input cable of the probe and connect the other end to the object under test.
RIGOL Precautions During Measurement CAUTION Before measurement, try to twist the high-voltage differential input cables as much as possible, which can better reduce the interference of the lead inductance and external noise to improve the anti-interference ability of the probe. The twisting method is shown in the figure below: Figure 2 Twisting the High-Voltage Differential Input Cable Try not to extend the input cable, as this will bring more noises.
