Innovative Aegis Technology – Protect Your LCR Meter
The LCR Elite2 is protected by the Aegis Technology, our patentpending solution to automatically protect the meter from being
damaged by energized components.
The traditional LCR meters have a common vulnerability to highvoltage and current from the component they are measuring. In
many cases, the component under testing can have stored
energy, for example a charged capacitor or a powered on board.
The energy in the component is a common problem that causes
damage to LCR meters, thus requiring expensive and timeconsuming repairs.
The Aegis Technology solves this problem. It provides over voltage protection up to +/-48Vdc (or +/-34Vac).
In normal operation, it is transparent and doesn't affect the measurement results thanks to the low parasitic
design. When an abnormal voltage is applied on the meter's test tips, no matter positive or negative, theAegis Technology detects it right away and automatically disconnects it from the meter. The "OVER VOLT"
message is shown on the display to remind the user to de-energize the component under testing. To returnthe LCR Elite2 to normal operation mode, simply remove the meter from the component and press thebutton. No components are damaged and no fuse replacement is required.

An Accurate LCR Meter with Self Calibration
Built with more advanced chipset and algorithm, LCR Elite2
greatly improves measurement accuracy. It delivers a basic
accuracy of 0.2% for both resistance and capacitance and 0.4%
for inductance. Each meter is fully calibrated during production
and shipped with a NIST (National Institute of Standards andTechnology) traceable calibration certificate.

User Friendly Interface

The LCR Elite2 provides self calibration function that can bedone in less than 30 seconds by simply shorting and opening
two test tips. The self calibration significantly reduces thedevice's internal and external parasitic parameters for better
accuracy, especially for measuring smaller resistance,
capacitance or inductance where the parasitic parameters may
greatly influence the test results.

The LCR Elite2 allows you to switch between themeasurement screen and menu screen easily bypressing down the navigation button for aroundhalf a second. In the menu screen, you canconfigure different parameter settings, start selfcalibration or view device information.
The LCR Elite2 provides a full set of shortcuts tohelp you switch between all kinds of parameters
quickly and with ease during measurement. Youcan single or double click the navigation button toquickly select different measurement types andtest frequencies.
