AVM 2000 Nullmeter/Nano Voltmeter
    The Model AVM-2000 replaces models AVM-100, Fluke 845, Keithley 155 and HP 419.  The AVM-2000 Null-Meter is a calibration laboratory grade Null meter and Nano voltmeter. It can be used as a stand-alone analog voltmeter or in conjunction with Kelvin-Varley dividers and other calibration laboratory equipment where high sensitivity ratio-metric processes are used.

    The AVM-2000 has a very high sensitivity front end amplifier with extremely high common mode rejection making it ideal for comparison/ratio measurements. It is specifically designed for standards comparison and displays readings on an easy to read, dual-scale, mirror-backed meter with null (0) shown at center scale. An isolated, single ended output allows connection to other instrumentation such as chart recorders, data acquisition systems and digital voltmeters. This output also enables the AVM-2000 to be used as a high quality instrumentation amplifier with input impedances ranging from 1 MO to 1 GO, and gains from 10-3 to 108 . Common mode rejection of 80 dB, precision adjustable offset voltages and a wide selection of low pass filters ensure operation over the entire range from 100 nV to 1000 V without compromising resolution or accuracy.

Features
    Mains Isolation :
    The AVM-2000 may be operated from line power or its internal rechargeable battery (rechargeable with the internal battery charger). Battery operation allows up to 50 hours of total independence and isolation from common mode signals generated through mains and building wiring, minimizing the possibility of errors induced by ground loops and other wiring induced noise

    Easy/Traditional Operation :
    At its heart, the AVM-2000 employs modern digital technology; however to the user it functions as a traditional analog meter. The AVM-2000 incorporates a mirrorbacked, high-accuracy, dual-scale, analog meter display to facilitate use as a Nullmeter. Range is selected by rotating a traditional Range selection knob. All operating modes are pushbutton selected and displayed on an easy to read LCD. Output level, and input offset level are controlled by “press-rotate-press” rotary controls. Settings are held in non volatile memory.

    Indicators :
    A backlit LCD alphanumeric display assists the user in operation and setup of the instrument. It continuously displays the status of the primary selected parameters and mode of operation. The current range setting is shown in large bold numbers to eliminate range reading errors incurred when reading knob position.
    The AVM-2000, utilizing the latest available technology, surpasses all of the specifications of its predecessors. It replaces, and exceeds the performance and functionality of: the PPM model AVM-100 and the discontinued Hewlett Packard HP419A, Fluke 845AB, and Keithley 155.

    Unique Features Include :

    • Scalable rear panel output (± 0.5 - 1.5 Volt for Full Scale)
    • Low Thermal EMF input binding posts (Gold plated Tellurium Copper)
    • Input connector shield for thermal isolation of input terminals
    • Wide range of filter settings (0.1 - 100 sec in 1-2-5 sequence)
    • Analog sub-system in heavy metal guarded enclosure for long term thermal stability
