The Keysight 85052B Standard Mechanical Calibration Kit is a precision instrument for characterizing and correcting systematic errors in network analyzers operating from DC to 26.5 GHz. Built around 3.5 mm connectors and 50 Ω impedance, this kit enables full two-port calibration and delivers traceable measurements across the entire frequency range.
– Technical Specifications
• Frequency Range: DC to 26.5 GHz
• Connector Type: 3.5 mm (Precision Slotless Connectors, PSC-3.5)
• Impedance: 50 Ω
• Calibration Type: Full two-port
• Operating Temperature: +20 °C to +26 °C
• Storage Temperature: −40 °C to +75 °C
• Error-Corrected Range (Ambient Temperature Drift): ±1 °C
– Key Features
• Metrology-grade calibration standards: offset opens, offset shorts, broadband loads, and sliding load terminations optimized to 26.5 GHz
• PSC-3.5 female connectors ensure stable impedance based solely on conductor geometry, independent of mating pin diameter variation
• Three 3.5 mm adapters (socket/socket, plug/socket, plug/plug) for non-insertable device measurement and connector preservation
• Complete gaging toolkit: 3.5 mm gage sets, centering bead, and 5/16 in torque wrench (90 N-cm / 8 in-lb) for connector verification and maintenance
• Includes commercial calibration certificate and documentation disk sets containing calibration definitions for 8510 and 872x systems
– Typical Applications
Network analyzer calibration and systematic error characterization across microwave and millimeter-wave frequencies. Suitable for S-parameter measurements, gain/phase tracking, and insertion loss verification where traceability and measurement repeatability are critical.
– Compatibility & Integration
Designed for Keysight network analyzer platforms including 8510 and 872x series systems. Kit documentation and data files support direct integration with these instruments.
