Operating Instructions 422E5X Series 1.0 INTRODUCTION During operation, the electrical charge from the transducer is transferred to the The 422E5X series charge amplifiers feedback capacitor, resulting in a voltage convert the high impedance charge given by the following equation: signal from a charge mode transducer to a low impedance voltage signal.
3.0 INSTALLATION This symbol on the unit Connect the 422E5X to the transducer indicates that the user with low noise cable (003 type only). should refer to the Standard coaxial cable may be used operating instructions between the amplifier and power unit, located in the manual.
6.0 MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR The 422E5X charge amplifier is hermetically sealed, and requires no maintenance. If the connectors become dirty, clean with lint-free wipes dampened with isopropyl alcohol. For extremely dirty or humid environments, the cable connections can be protected with low temperature heat shrink tubing.
