P6011 PROBE SECTION 1

Tektronix-P6011-Passive-Probe-01

GENERAL INFORMATION

The P6011 is o passive l X probe with o small diameter probe body for cozy access to lest points of compact circuitry.
The probe consists of o probe body assembly and o coble with a BNC connector. The coble is available in 3.5.fool, 6.fool, and 9-foat lengths.

CHARACTERISTICS

Input Capacitance
At 140 kHz the input copal, lance of lye 3.5- foot coble is 28 pF, the 6-foot cable is 48 pF, and the 9-foot coble is 75 pF.

Voltage Rating
The maximum DC, AC peak, or DC and AC peak combined input voltage is 600 V. See Fig.
1-2 for derating curves.

Risetime
The risetime of the probe alone, when driven by a 25-ohm source is lisle in Table 1-1.

TABLE 1-1Tektronix-P6011-Passive-Probe-02 Connecting Cable
The cable is made with a special res, solve center which provides critical damping of reflections.

Environmental Capability
The probe will operose normally at tempera lures to 75 ° C.

USE OF ACCESSORIES

Pincher Tip
The pincher tip, which slides onto the probe body, provides a positive connection to a test point.

Hook Tip
The hook tip provides a means of holding onto a test point when there is not adequate room for the pincher tip.

Insulating Tube
When using the probe without one of the above tips, place an insulating tube over the tip of the probe to avoid short circuits.

Ground Lead
The ground lead clips to the probe between the probe body and the cable assembly.

Insulating Sleeve
When the ground lead is connected to the probe, place the insulating sleeve over the exposed connection to avoid short circuits.

Miniature Alligator Clip
The insulated alligator clip screws onto the ground lead

Probe Holder
The probe holder provides a convenient means of storing the probe when not in use. After connecting the probe to the instrument being used, place the wide half of the probe holder around the cable and slide onto the tapered portion of the cable assembly near the BNC connector. When the probe is not in use, place the tapered portion near the probe body into the holder.

MAINTENANCE

The P6011 Probe is designed to withstand normal operation and handling and should give many hours of continuous use without failure.
However, if the probe fails or breaks, replacement parts are available. See Mechanical Parts List in Section 2.

Replacing the Cable Assembly
If the coaxial cable between the probe body and the BNC connector should fail, the cable assembly is available complete with fittings and
cable reliefs. Replace the cable assembly as follows:

  1. Unscrew the BNC plug, using two 7/ 16 in. wrenches.
  2. Unsolder the contact pin.
  3. Remove the spacer insulator.
  4. Unscrew the probe body and sleeve assembly from the other end of the cable assembly.
  5. Unsolder the male plug from the cable.
  6. Install the new cable assembly by reversing the above procedure.
