Review and Testing the Uni-T UT705 Process Loop Calibrator

[@inothome]

Wow, usually Uni-T is a pretty good value for the price. But that is pretty pricey and it can't source voltage. Super accurate though. But that price is way out or line. Good to see a brighter bench top too! Been a while since I watched a video, was busy moving back half way around the world (no more rockets for me). So maybe you've had a brighter bench top for a while now. But, great review as always!

Yeah, the price is certainly up there with the large industrial brand names, but it looks to be capable of the job, which is great to see. Moved the lights to be a little more behind me now, instead of off to the side. Shame about the rocket job, looked to be an incredible experience.

@@three-phase562 Agreed on the Uni-T. Rocket job was fun, but was only temporary for me. Now back to semi-retired life. Definitely saw lots of cool tech there though.

not being able to source current is a big disappointment though

[@three-phase562]

It can source current but not voltage, but you are right it is a disappointment and it should really be able to do both. Guess they are trying to get you to go out and buy the UT701 as well to cover the voltage function. Thanks for watching.

​@@three-phase562can use a R of 500 K in Parallel to Source Voltage ?

[@three-phase562]

@@doviedop It a good question but unfortunately, these current sources don't work as expected. They seem to push out a constant 24V and adjust the current limit accordingly. They don't seem to work as a standard power supply that would generate enough voltage to drive the set current through the load, which would then work across a resistor as you have suggested. Thanks for watching and commenting.
