The BK Precision Capacitance Meter manual provides instructions for setup, operation, and troubleshooting, including details on measuring capacitance, battery replacement, and fuse replacement. It emphasizes safety precautions such as discharging capacitors before measurement and provides technical specifications and warranty information.
Manual Overview
The BK Precision 810C Capacitance Meter manual provides detailed instructions for troubleshooting, diagnostics, calibration, and maintenance. The meter features a 3½ digit LCD with automatic polarity and overrange indication. For troubleshooting, the manual advises checking the fuse if no measurements are possible, as the device is protected by a 0.1A/250V fast-acting fuse. Calibration involves using the “0-ADJ” knob to subtract stray capacitance for measurements under 200nF. The meter operates with a single 9-volt battery, and a low battery is indicated by “E=1” on the display. Battery replacement requires removing two screws to access the battery compartment. The device should not be exposed to external voltage to prevent damage, and capacitors must be discharged before measurement. The manual also includes guidance on replacing the fuse and emphasizes the importance of using the original type. The meter’s accuracy is specified at 23°C with less than 75% relative humidity.
Quick Issues Covered
- Low battery indication triggers 'E=1' on display.
- Check fuse if capacitance measurements fail.
- Zero adjust knob compensates for stray capacitance.
