Advantest R3162

The R3162 spectrum analyzer uses the synthesized local method and allow the user highly stable and highly precise spectrum analysis.

The power measurement function of the R3162 is useful for evaluating radio instruments using measurements such as occupied bandwidth (OBW), adjacent channel power (ACP), channel power, etc.

An auto tuning function that searches for a signal with the maximum input level. A 3.5 inch floppy disk drive is provided to save the data in BMP format.

Measurement conditions and data can be stored using Save and recall functions in TEXT format.

The remote control capabilities of the R3162 allow the user to set up an automatic measurement system. This remote control function complies with GPIB and RS-232 specifications.

Although the R3162 has been designed to withstand a certain amount of noise riding on the AC power line, it should be used in an area of low noise. Noise cut filter can be used to avoid ambient noise.

The R3162 has an exhaust cooling fan on the rear panel and an exhaust vent on the bottom side toward the front. These areas should never be blocked as this results internal temperature rise which will affect measurement accuracy.

The R3162 Series can be used safely under these conditions: Altitude of 2000 m maximum above the sea level, Installation category II and Pollution degree 2.

During the operation of R3162, the power supply automatically switches between input voltage levels of 100 VAC and 200 VAC. However, ensure to use a power cable that matches the input voltage and meets the related standard.

Remove dust from the outside of the R3162 by wiping or brushing the surface with a soft cloth or small brush. Use a brush to remove the dust from around the panel keys. Hardened dirt can be removed by using a cloth which has been dampened in water containing a mild detergent.
