Product description

 The World's Most Accurate Capacitance/Loss Bridge 

 

The AH 2550A offers unparalleled stability, resolution and accuracy in a capacitance/loss bridge (whether manual or automatic).

Its numerous state of the art features make it an exceptionally user-friendly instrument, just as was its predecessor, the AH2500A.

The precision and ease of use of the AH2550A are creating new applications in science, calibration, and production in a wide range of fields.

 

The AH2550A has replaced the non-option-E version of the AH2500A. The latter product is no longer available.

 

The AH2550A is designed to be an improved substitute for the AH2500A and should be capable of replacing the AH2500A in virtually all applications.
