High Resistivity App
The optional high resistivity application (HRMA) for KickStart is designed for use with Keithley’s 6517B Electrometer/ High Resistance Meter. The 6517B along with the 8009 Resistivity Test Fixture is a laboratory standard for volume and surface resistivity measurements on insulating materials. Together, they can be used to measure resistance up to 1018 O at up to 1000V.
The KickStart High Resistance Measurement Option makes it easier for you to:
-
Quickly and reliably determine resistivity of material using tests that conform to ASTM D257 standard
-
Perform a Step Response test to identify electrification time appropriate to the material’s time constant
-
Observe resistivity dependence on temperature and relative humidity of environment using optional probes 6517-TP and 6517-RH
-
Use alternating polarity measurement technique to eliminate inherent background currents for the most accurate resistivity measurements
The KickStart High Resistivity Application requires a license: either the KICKSTARTFL-HRMA2 floating perpetual license or the KICKSTARTFL-HRMA2-AN 1-year time-based license. A floating license allows selected users to manage transfer of individual license to different PCs.
