Repair and Maintenance
PCB guarantees Total Customer Satisfaction through its
“Lifetime Warranty Plus” on all Platinum Stock Products
sold by PCB and through its limited warranties on all other
PCB Stock, Standard and Special products. Due to the
sophisticated nature of our sensors and associated
instrumentation, field servicing and repair is not
recommended and, if attempted, will void the factory
warranty.
Beyond routine calibration and battery replacements
where applicable, our products require no user
maintenance. Clean electrical connectors, housings, and
mounting surfaces with solutions and techniques that will
not harm the material of construction. Observe caution
when using liquids near devices that are not hermetically
sealed. Such devices should only be wiped with a
dampened cloth—never saturated or submerged.
In the event that equipment becomes damaged or ceases
to operate, our Application Engineers are here to support
your troubleshooting efforts 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week. Call or email with model and serial number as well
as a brief description of the problem.
Calibration
Routine calibration of sensors and associated
instrumentation is necessary to maintain measurement
accuracy. We recommend calibrating on an annual basis,
after exposure to any extreme environmental influence,
or prior to any critical test.
PCB Piezotronics is an ISO-9001 certified company whose
calibration services are accredited by A2LA to ISO/IEC
17025, with full traceability to SI through N.I.S.T. In
addition to our standard calibration services, we also offer
specialized tests, including: sensitivity at elevated or
cryogenic temperatures, phase response, extended high
or low frequency response, extended range, leak testing,
hydrostatic pressure testing, and others. For more
information, contact your local PCB Piezotronics
distributor, sales representative, or factory customer
service representative.
Returning Equipment
If factory repair is required, our representatives will
provide you with a Return Material Authorization (RMA)
number, which we use to reference any information you
have already provided and expedite the repair process.
This number should be clearly marked on the outside of
all returned package(s) and on any packing list(s)
accompanying the shipment.

Introduction
Model 480C02 & model 480E09 are rugged, portable, power sources for ICP® sensors. These models are nearly
identical except model 480C02 is unity gain 1:1 only with no adjustment, while model 480E09 has the additional
feature of 3-position gain adjustment (1/10/100). They are powered internally by three replaceable batteries and
provide constant current excitation to the charge amplifier within ICP® sensors (or to in-line and adaptor style
amplifiers) and decouples the sensor output signal from the power. Signal output is a high quality, voltage output
compatible with standard readout, recording or acquisition instruments.

Description
Models 480C02 / 480E09 contain three, PP3 size, 9 volt batteries connected in series to provide DC power to
internal electronics which provide regulation for approximately 2.6 mA of constant current power. Connections
include two BNC jacks, one for Sensor (ICP®power/input) and one for Scope (output to scope, data recorder, or
DAQ). The front panel meter indicates the voltage output when connected to a sensor and is color coded for
various fault conditions, shown in Figure 1 & 2. Optional connections include sockets for EXT PWR and BATT
CHG. A central, three-position rocker switch allows off, on and momentary battery test functionality.
Model 480E09 has the additional 3-position gain adjustment that multiplies the signal output through the SCOPE
connection. It has 2 additional settings beyond the 480C02, 10x and 100x, shown in Figure 2.

Operation
Internal electronics include a capacitor and resistor that decouples the sensor output signal from the DC power.
With no sensor connected, move power switch to “ON” position. The front panel voltmeter measures the battery
voltage with full scale set at 27 volts (+27 volts for new batteries), see Figure 1. When an ICP® sensor is
connector to the input “XDCR” jack, the meter will indicate approximately mid-scale (+11 volts nominal) if the
sensor’s internal amplifier and cables are functioning properly without damage. Some sensors use a 5 volt
excitation and in this case the meter will read at the lower edge of the green region.
