This unit

The GenRad 1608A Standard Capacitor is a valuable tool for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of capacitance measurements. Its solid construction and stable design provide long-term performance, making it an ideal choice for demanding applications where precision is critical. This standard capacitor is widely used in industries such as electronics manufacturing, aerospace, and telecommunications.

GenRad 1608A — Repair & Calibration Service

Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the GenRad 1608A. Calibration covers impedance magnitude accuracy at 100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, and 100 kHz, dissipation factor (D) and quality factor (Q) accuracy, phase angle accuracy, open and short compensation verification, and cable length compensation. HP/Keysight 4284A additionally verified at 1 MHz.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.

Standard Cal
$450
Pass/fail cert + NIST sticker

Common GenRad 1608A faults: GPIB interface board failure, display failure, guard terminal switch contact wear, oscillator calibration drift on older analog bridges. HP 4284A and 4285A most common faults are HPIB interface board failure and display contrast loss. The internal oscillator and vector measurement circuits are highly stable and rarely fail. Wayne Kerr and GenRad bridge instruments may develop switch contact wear on decade resistance/capacitance dials.

GenRad 1608A price

This GenRad 1608A is listed at $550. Calibration is available separately from $450. Contact us for volume pricing or if you need multiple units.

GenRad 1608A calibration cost

NIST-traceable calibration for the GenRad 1608A is $450 (standard — pass/fail certificate and calibration sticker) or $650 (full measured data at every test point, reference standards documented, traceability chain included). Calibration for this instrument covers impedance magnitude accuracy at 100 Hz, 1 kHz, 10 kHz, and 100 kHz, dissipation factor (D) and quality factor (Q) accuracy, phase angle accuracy, open and short compensation verification, and cable length compensation. HP/Keysight 4284A additionally verified at 1 MHz.. Turnaround is 1 to 3 business days after receipt. See full calibration details →
