Data Sheet
Model 830B
Capacitance Meter
B&K Precision Corporation’s Model 830B Capacitance Meter is a compact, hand
held, light weight, battery powered test unit featuring a large 4
1/2 digit LCD display,
11,000 counts resolution, and nine (9) automatically selected ranges with full scale
value from 1.0pF to 199.99mF. Designed to meet the latest international safety
standards, the Model 830B’s dedicated chip and microprocessor allow the user to
program high/low limits, or utilize pre-programmed capacitor tolerances. Software
and cabling are provided for PC based data logging and monitoring via a USB inter-
face. The PC based data logging capability allows the user to remotely monitor,
record, and track problems and significantly improve maintenance performance.
Model 830B Capacitance Meter is the ideal device for measuring values, inspec-
tion, sorting capacitors, and testing capacitors against standard tolerances.
Capacitance Meter
Model 830B
The Model 830B Capacitance Meter’s large 4
1/2
digit LCD dual display can
simultaneously display values and deviations from selected tolerances. The unit
can also sort on preset tolerances of 1, 5, and 10%. The built-in chip and
microprocessor allows the user to program unique values to sort specific circuit
applications. Outstanding features of the Model 830B include:
■ Dual Display simultaneously displays value and deviation from
selected tolerance
■ Sort on preset tolerance of 1, 5, and 10%
■ Program unique values to sort for specific circuit applications
■ USB PC interface and data logging software included
■ 9V battery operated
■ Three year warranty
