The Atlas LCR40 automatically identifies and analyses almost any passive
component (Inductor, Capacitor or Resistor). It measures its parameters
using automatically selected test frequencies (DC, 1kHz, 15kHz and
200kHz).
Inductance from 1uH to 10H (min resolution is 0.8uH),
Capacitance from 1pF to 10000uF (min resolution is 0.5pF) and Resistance
from 1ohm to 2Mohm.
Includes:
- LCR40 Passive Component Analyser.
- 2mm plugs and sockets and removeable hook probes.
- Comprehensive illustrated user guide.
- GP23 Alkaline battery.

FAQs
Q. Capacitance measured when probes are open circuit is not close to zero (±1.6pf)
A. Slight variations in open circuit capacitance are normal, perform a probe compensation procedure.
Q. Resistance and/or inductance measured when probes are short circuit is not close to zero (±1.2 ohms, ±1.6uH)
A. Slight variations in short circuit resistance and inductance are normal, perform a probe compensation procedure.
Q. Measured value doesn't appear to be correct.
A. Ensure probes are well connected to the component under test for the entire duration of the analysis.
A. Ensure that nothing else is connected with the component under test. Make sure you are not touching the connections.
A. The component value may be outside the supported measurement range.
A. The component's design frequency may not correspond to the test frequencies used by the Atlas LCR.
Q. Measured values vary slightly between tests.
A. The displayed resolution is finer than the internal measurement
resolution to avoid rounding errors. Small variations within the quoted
measurement resolutions are normal.
Q. Calibration date is approaching or has past.
A. Don't worry, the Atlas LCR will carry on working after the "Calibration
Due Date" has past. The date is simply a recommendation and may be
required for the purposes of satisfying your own quality procedures.

Q. Probe(s) has become detached.
A. Older style probes simply fit to the test leads using square-pin
connectors to allow for various accessories. Simply push them back
together. New probe types are fitted together with 2mm plugs and
sockets.
Q. Display shows "Low Resistance and Inductance" when testing some components, why won't it measure them?
A. It will measure them. This message is displayed when the Atlas LCR is
measuring a low resistance and low inductance component and cannot be
certain whether it is an inductor or a resistor (as they can have very
similar properties at low values). Simply press scroll on the unit and
you will see the measurements for both inductance and resistance.
