Product Overview

The Wayne Kerr 6430B Precision Component Analyzer provides thorough and accurate testing of any passive component to high resolution.  In particular, for capacitor manufacturers, the instrument provides capabilities for both fast automatic production testing and complete design characterisation. This is the perfect instrument for designers of passive components, manufacturing test, designing and testing materials as well as circuit designers who are evaluating component characteristics. The resonant frequency can be automatically calculated for any component together with its equivalent series or parallel circuit at that frequency. The Wayne Kerr 6430B Analyzer is the entry level instrument covering to 500 kHz.

Features and Specifications of the Wayne Kerr 6430B Precision Component Analyzer include:

• Fast automatic multi-frequency production testing of capacitors
