Cal Test Electronics Introduces New Insulated BNC to 4mm Banana Jack Attenuators

January 5 2021, 00:25
Test and measurement accessories specialist, Cal Test introduced three new unique BNC to banana jack attenuating adapters, bridging oscilloscope functionality with DMM test lead durability. What is unique is that in addition to being fully insulated BNC male to 4 mm sheathed banana jack adapters, they are attenuating adapters providing 1,000V CAT II and 600V CAT III protection. Providing a 1MΩ impedance and accepting 4mm sheathed banana plugs, the adapters allow for work in higher voltages and CAT environments such as electrical panel mains.
 

The three available attenuating values are identified by the BNC insulator color: 10x (Blue), 20x (Green), and 100x (White). These attenuators from Cal Test are ideal for those lower frequency (<100 kHz) but higher voltage applications where safety calls for probes and leads more robust than standard oscilloscope probes. Using 4mm DMM probes and/or insulated alligator clips provides a safer, more durable handheld test setup.
 
Selecting an adapter with the appropriate attenuation factor can reduce the input voltage to the range for the application and equipment. This is especially critical if one has a scope with a low input voltage such as portable USB or wireless types. These adapters are small and lightweight making an ideal addition to any DMM accessory kit.

The attenuators are all usable in high category environments (i.e., 1,000 V CAT II / 600 V CAT III) and are all RoHS 2 compliant. Cal Test Electronics serves the electronic and electrical markets with an extensive line of quality test accessories of over 3,000 items in 7 product categories.

Model    CT4448-10 insulated BNC to 4mm Banana Jack Attenuator, 10x is available for $31.10, model CT4448-20 20x is $34.70, and model CT4448-100 100x is available for $44.55 - all prices are MSRP.
