Fluke 52120A Transconductance Amplifier tested in full working conditions
Description of Fluke 52120A
Expand the workload capability of your power and electrical calibrators
The Fluke Calibration 52120A Transconductance Amplifier supplies dc current up to 100 amps and ac current up to 120 amps, at accuracies to 140 ppm. Using accessory coils, it can generate 3,000 or 6,000 amps. Three 52120As connected in parallel can output up to 360 amps. Inductive drive capability of 1 mH and compliance voltage of 4.5 volts support a wide range of applications.
