DC/AC MicroProbe Models K100 and K110 5CHAPTER 2PRODUCT FEATURES2.1 DescriptionModel K100 and Model K110 are low current measurement instrumentsthat feature a compact, high sensitivity current probe. Unlike other instru-ments, the Model K100 exhibits a wide dynamic operating range, whichextends from below 100μA to ± 4.5A peak, from DC to 2.0kHz*, without theneed for ranging. The K110 has an operating range of 100μA to ± 450mAPeak, from DC to 1500Hz.*Models K100 and K110 are designed to be operated in conjunction with adigital multimeter, oscilloscope or recording device. The MicroProbe out-puts the current measured in the form of a voltage that is the image of thecurrent, in shape and amplitude. The Model K100 outputs 1mV per mA ofmeasured current. The Model K110 outputs 10mV per mA of measuredcurrent. To take advantage of the Model K100 high sensitivity, best resultsare obtained through 4-1/2 digit (or more) DMM with a relative zero func-tion. The Model K110 was designed to provide the operator with enhancedlow current linearity and accuracy, but is limited to 450mA Peak current.The Model K100/K110 always outputs a signal proportional to the totalcurrent (AC+DC) in the conductor under test. This has proven to be themost versatile signal output format, and allows the user to isolate andmeasure DC and AC components of measured current separately, if sodesired. Typical applications include 4 to 20mA loop measurements, auto-motive current applications, benchtop electronic current consumption incircuits, and other applications requiring very low current measurementsin crowded areas.* See Electrical Specificationswww.ShopAEMC.comShop for AEMC products online at: 1.877.766.5412
