    3. The contact assembly’s outer housing incorporates “stops” that insure consistent contact pres- sure during measurement. 4. Overall size of the PRF-922B is 0.50 inches in diameter by 6.75 inches (171 mm) long. This optimal size and shape make the fixture very comfortable and easy to handle. Its outer housing is made of black anodized aluminum.

    flammable areas. 7. Do not attempt to measure energized materials, items or circuits with the PRF-922B 8. The PRF-922B is a precision fixture to be operated by experienced personnel familiar in the use and handling of devices employing energized power supplies.
  • Page 7 1. To confirm general setup and function of the PRF-922B, place the electrodes against a clean metal surface. For example, the plated metal side of the Prostat PTB-920, Dual Surface Test Bed.

Activate the wide range, resistance instrument to obtain a measurement. In the case where the PRS-801B is the measurement instrument, it should measure 1.00x10...
  • Page 9 For measurements greater than 1.0x10 ohms, use 100 volts NOTE: For optimal performance and accuracy, use the Prostat PRS-801B Resistance System in its AUTOMATIC Mode (either Default Mode 1 [Ohms], or Mode 2 [Exponential 1.0EXX/ Ohms] display). AUTOMATIC Mode will control test voltage, resistance range adjustment and electrification period automatically.

    A proper measurement would include placing the material, or device under test (DUT), onto a clean metal test bed that is isolated from ground, such as the Prostat PTB-920 Test Bed. This insures that only the material is being measured and the measurement is not affected by voltage variables on ground.

    PRF-922B Miniature Two-Point Probe Set charges on its surface. The Operator should also be properly grounded to avoid body charges influencing the measurement. The metal test bed is connected to the resistance instruments positive (+) terminal, which provides volt- age to the test bed during the measurement. The micro probe shielded cable with installed BNC/Banana Adapter is connected to the resistance instruments negative (-) terminal.
