Current Conditioners 706 & 766 Series  

Model 706 & 766

These instruments are full featured current conditioner/readouts; the Model 706 handles one and the Model 766 handles two transmitters (2 or 4 wire) or current sources. Both provide fast, accurate data for each input. Twenty (20) useful processing functions and real-time digital calculations make the Model 706/766 powerful production and performance test analyzers with easily configured characteristics.

A two line alphanumeric display publishes measured and computed data, units of measure and test status. Transducer calibration is automatic, requiring no manual adjustments.

Notes:

1. The ratio expressed in decibels (dB), of Full Scale signal to noise spread. Measurements are made for a 1 minute interval using a 100 ohm source impedance.

2. Both excitation voltages can be used simultaneously with the following restrictions: 4.8 x (12V current) + (5V Current) =< 700 mA AND 12V current =< 125 mA AND 5V current =< 250 mA.

3. Option MA converts voltage output to 4-20mA or 12±8mA current output(s). See Bulletin 389-1 for complete details.

4. Specification is subject to change without notice.
