instructions.
Function
Page 55363A_002-812e-08.17
3. Function
The function of charge amplifiers can be tested and their
charge sensitivity checked with the Charge Generator
Type 5363A. For an exact charge amplifier calibration, its
accuracy of approx. 1 % is not adequate; the Kistler product
range does, however, also contain suitable equipment for
this purpose.
Thanks to its integral battery, the Charge Generator Type
5363A is ideal for a quick charge-amplifier check including
in the industrial sector.
A ten-turn precision potentiometer allows the voltage sup-
plied by the battery to be set accurately on the „DIAL“ to 0
... 10 V. The series voltage circuit with an accurate capaci-
tor corresponds (as an equation) to multiplication C · U and
thus to the desired charge Q = C · U.
Fig. 1: Block diagram
In addition to the three charge outputs, the Charge
Generator has a direct voltage output of 0 ... 10 V.
The polarity of the voltage or charge output can be
selected with a +/– switch, in which the „–“ switch setting
or negative polarity with reference to zero, is the normal
case, and therefore corresponds to the charge polarity of a
pressure-loaded quartz package.
The battery is connected via a voltage regulator to the
potentiometer by pressing the „ON“ button making a
special battery on/off switch unnecessary.

4. Operation
4.1 Charge Ranges
The charge is yielded at 3 of 4 BNC sockets which are
labeled with the capacitor connected in series:
Example for setting up the voltage
A charge amplifier with the nominal range of 3 840 pC FS
is to be checked. Only the connection „1 nF“ (1 000 ... 10
000 pC) is useful for this charge value. The voltage must
then be set to
The corresponds to the value „3“ in the small window on
the „DIAL“ knob and on the scale under it to a value of 84
divisions.
It is important to ensure that insulation of the coaxial
connecting cable between charge amplifier and Charge
Generator is adequate, in our case has an insulation value
of ≥1014 Ω. Poor cable insulation increases drift and makes
the test less accurate.
Test Setup 1
= Set the charge amplifier to „RESET“, connect the Charge
Generator to charge amplifier input.
= Set the calculated voltage value on the „DIAL“; select pola-
rity „+“ or „–“ (norm.) on the switch.
= Switch the charge amplifier to „OPERATE“, press the „ON“
button on the Charge Generator and read off and evaluate
the measurand at the charge amplifier output.
If the stability of the charge amplifier FS-value is to be che-
cked over a longer period of time, the following procedure
is recommended:
3 840 pC
1000 pF 3,84 V
=
0,1 nF Adjustment range 0 ... 1 000 pC
1 nF Effective range 1 000 ... 10 000 pC
10 nF Effective range 10 000 ... 100 000 pC
Operation
Page 75363A_002-812e-08.17
Test Setup 2
= Set the charge amplifier to „RESET“, connect the Charge
Generator to the charge amplifier input.
= Set the calculated voltage value on the „DIAL“; set the po-
larity to the opposite (wrong) value.
= Press the „ON“ button on the Charge Generator and keep
it depressed. Switch the charge amplifier to OPERATE.
= Release the „ON“ button, read off and evaluate the measu-
rand at the charge amplifier.
4.2 Voltage Range 0 ... 10 V
Connect to the BNC connector marked „VOLTAGE“. The
value to be set on the „DIAL“ is obtained as described
above. One turn of the knob represents 1 V change in
voltage, that is the resolution of the 100-digit scale is 10
mV per division.
Combined with an external calibration capacitor, the
voltage output can be used for testing the charge amplifier.
If the voltage output is used to test a voltmeter, then it
may be necessary to consider the error caused by a load.
Depending on the „DIAL“ setting, the internal resistance of
the voltage output will be 1 ... 3,5 kΩ.
4.3 Testing the Battery Charge
The „VOLTAGE“ output is also used for this purpose and
measurement made with a DVM (input resistance ≥1 MΩ)
with „DIAL“ setting 999. A voltage value below 9,980 V
indicates a discharged battery.
4.4 Change of Batteries
Two Type AA batteries stated on the base of the unit are
required. These battery types are available in local stores.
Changingthe batteries requires disassembly of the device.
Please contact your Kistler Service Center to send in
your device for battery change. As a result of an integral
semiconductor reference element, the Charge Generator
does not need to be recalibrated after a battery change.
Following a battery change, the output voltage at the
VOLTAGE connection in the DIAL setting 999 should be
9,980 ... 10,020 V.
