- Test Current Levels: Selectable AC signal from 1 µA to 10 mA (1 µA, 10 µA, 100 µA, 1 mA, 10 mA)
- Test Frequency: 1 kHz
- Maximum Applied AC Voltage: 20 mV peak
- Measurement Speed: 34 ms minimum
- Basic Accuracy: 0.4%
- Parameters Measured: R, X, |Z|, L, θ
- Power Requirements: 90–132 Vac or 198–264 Vac, 47–66 Hz, 45 VA typical
Key Features
- Contact check function ensures reliable connections during measurement
- Built-in comparator with HIGH, IN, and LOW settings for pass/fail testing
- Auto-measurement mode optimized for very low resistances via AC test signal
- Error correction maximizes accuracy across the measurement range
- Non-volatile memory maintains operation through AC power loss
- GPIB interface for automated testing and computer control
- Isolated handler interface reduces ground loops in manufacturing environments
Typical Applications Electromechanical components, battery testing, cable continuity verification, and PC board resistance characterization.
Compatibility & Integration The 4338B accepts a range of test leads and accessories including the 16338A Test Lead Kit (Kelvin clip, pin, and alligator leads), 42091A 4-terminal pair short termination for calibration, 42030A standard resistor set (1 mΩ to 100 kΩ), and optional 4338B-1CM rackmount or 4338B-1CN front handle kits.

Agilent / Keysight 4338B — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Agilent / Keysight 4338B. 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.
Common Agilent / Keysight 4338B 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.
