SECTION 3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

.Aea mm:

Place mAs-NOSN switch to NORM Qosftion. than refer to Wade1

168 manual for OMM operation.

Ae e mA8 Meter: Refer to Model 168 manual for power selecrion details.

Place nuts-NORM switch to m&s. For the o-1999 mAe range.

depress (DC) and (A). Depress the erase button to redec

the unit to 0 mAs and use the erase button whenever a

resee is desired.

Connection LO X-Ray Machines: l”ne 168-20 rr& meter is specifically

designed for use with x-ray machines in the O-1999 WAS range. me m~8

meter muse be connected in series with the x-ray machine’s high voltage

secondary, between the secondary winding and ground. as ehovn In Figure

1. -Hose x-my machines have labeled ma or mAs fese poinrs for this

purpaee.

WARNING

Consult r-ray machine service manual for proper hook up. since

improper connections can result in lethal voltages present on the

168-20 and damage to the meter. NEVER connect 168-20 co “high”

side of the secondary. This will result in destruction of the

meter and a dangerous shock hazard. Never touch any part of the

wment circuit with Lhe high voltage on.

& over voltage protection device should be securely fasrened across rbe

ma or ntAs test points exrernally or internally LO protect both machines

and,che qperator in the event of an open circuit LO the m~8 meter (i.e..

teat lead falling off, blown fuge. etc.). Suitable procecrion devicea

include power resistors, epark gaps, etc. Specific information concernidg

protection devices should be obtained from the manufacturer of the x-ray

machine in quearion.

Figure 2 s@~s an alternate measurement technique for meesuring r&s. A

shunt resistor is securely installed across rhe ma or tie test points and

the 168-20 is used in the inre$raring voltege mode. Integrating voltage

mode is selected by pldcing the m&-NORM witch in the mAe position and

depressing (DC).

The shunt resistor should be wire wound, with a parer raring adequate for

the machine’s l~aximum current.

m Shunt Reeiecor

0 * 199.9 * 10 n

0 + 1999 rk4.a 1n

0 * 19990 * .1 n

This technique provides greater safety. multiple ranges. and greater in-

put overload prorectioo or& the 168-20.
