A Novel Method with Good Repeatability and Stability for Calibrating Milliampere-Second Meter

Abstract:

There is not any calibration specification or verification regulation for the milliampere-second meter, a very important instrument for preventive maintenance and calibrating the X-ray machine [1][2], is used to measure the value of the product of tube current and exposure time. To solve the problem that the traditional method can not offer the same standard value in different times, this paper presents a method for calibrating the milliampere-second meter by using a signal generator and a digital meter. It shows that the new method has good repeatability and stability.
