Overview Specification

Cropico RBB Decade Resistance Box

A versatile range of resistance Decade Resistance Boxes, available in 5 & 6 decades. Both high accuracy and a wide range, 0.001 ohm to 11 mega ohm, are combined in a rugged case.

The switches used are gold plated to ensure a low contact resistance and negligible thermal E.M.F.

Some models employ the Waidner Wolf technique to eliminate the errors that may be caused by the variations in switch contact resistance. These models are particularly suited to applications such as Pt100 simulation where resolutions as low as 0.001 ohm (» 0.0025°C) are required.
