SECTION 1. GENERAL INFORMATlOi
The Hodel 168-23 OlAa meter is a Model 168.modified by the addition of
integratin,, capability on voltage and current ranges. The Model 168-23
is specifically designed to measure "As on x-ray machines but has a&i-
catio" wherever integrated current or voltage measuremen~a are required.

SECTION 3. OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
As a Dm: Place tie-NORM switch to NORMposition. then refec to Hodel
168 mnual for DMH operation.
A.9 a mAs Meter: Refer Lo Model 168 manual for power selection derails.
Place tia-NOPJ4 BViLCh to mAs. For the o-1999 mA8 range,
deprese (DC) and (A). Depress the crane button co reset
the unit Lo 0 "IAS nnd use the erase buccon vhenever a
reeec is desired.
Connection Co X-Rey Machines: The 168-23 tie meter is specifically
designed for use with x-ray machines in the O-1999 mAs range. Ihe S.AS
meter muer be connected in series with the x-ray machine's high voltage
secondary, between the secondary winding and ground. a~ show, in Pigwe
1. Most x-ray machines have labeled ma or ,X,B test points for this
purpose.

WARNING
Consult x-ray machine service manual far proper hook up, since
improper connections can result in lethal "oltegea present on the
168-23 and damage to the meter. NEVER c~nnece 168-23 f~ "high"
side of the secondary. This will result in destruction Of the
metet and a dangeraus shock hazard. Never much any part of the
measurement circuit with the hiph "oltaw on.
A,, over voltage pmtectim device should be securely fastened acr0.s~ the
ma or mAe tear pairks externally or internally to protect both machines
and the operator in the event of an open circuit to the mAs meter (i.e..
test lead falling off. blm fuse, etc.). Suitable protection devfces
include power reeietors. spark gaps, etc. Specific i"forn!ntio" concerning

`INSTRUCTIONS
,er Ueee: The 168-23 has 3 usable integrating ranges, as follows:
Function Setting (mAelNOI(N in mAs) Range
mAe (DC) (A) 0 - 1999 *
* 0 - 1.999 mA*
"B I::; (*) 0 - 1.999 "a
NOTE
The low mAs range has 1000 ohm series resistance, and should not be
wed for x-ray lnAa measucements. The volt-second range can be
transformed into an ti range by use of a shunt- resistor.
