current, and resistance ranges. The 1017 combines precision with
simple operation, making it suitable for use in the laboratory or field. • DC voltage 10 nV to 100 V
Constructed in a compact and durable plastic case with a tilt stand/ • DC current 100 nA to 100 mA
carry handle it takes up minimal bench space and is easily transportable.
• Resistance 10 mΩ to 10 kΩ
Five DC voltage ranges from 10 mV to 100 V full scale are available,
• Accuracy 0.005 % (50 ppm)
each with a 6-digit (1 ppm) resolution. The DC current range is 100 mA
full scale with a 100 nA (1 ppm) resolution. Resistance from 0.01 Ω to • 1 ppm setting resolution
10 kΩ is available 0.01 Ω steps. • Noise < 2 ppm (0.1 to 1 Hz)
Stability and Temperature Coefficient • Stability < 5 ppm/day, < 25 ppm/yr
Long-term stability is achieved by the use of high quality components
• Deviation control - voltage and current
and modern resistor technology. The 1017 features a precision
reference diode that provides the input to the units active circuitry. • Battery or mains operation
The special low-thermal emf terminals reduce errors when working
with microvolt signals.

Digital Deviation Control

Allows the output to be increased and decreased in % terms from
0 to ± 0.999 %. This provides a direct read-out of error and simplifies
the recording results for calibration certificates. It enables the user to Portable Operation
