更優異的性能指標
Fluke A40B 精密分流器包含14個低電感同軸分流器，測量電流范圍從0.1mA 至100A。主要用于在實驗室測量交直流電流和校準交直流電流轉換測量裝置。 A40B分流器的分流器內部的物理結構和元件的精密性保證了它的頻率響應非常平坦，電阻值非常穩定、準確，具有出色的低自加熱功率系數和低溫度系數，可以用于直接測量電流從直流到100kHz，直流電流準確度達 20 ppm，交流電流準確度達 23 ppm，遠遠高于之前的所有分流器裝置。因此，現在精密電流測量可以直接根據分流器電阻值的換算，而不一定要使用傳統復雜的交直流轉換轉換方法了。

更廣泛的應用
用A40B分流器和測量電壓儀器配合使用，可以直接測量交直流電流，校準各種校準器的電流功能，支持大電流跨導放大器的校準。由于A40B相位偏移極低，這一特點對交流功率測量，尤其是非正弦波形的測量非常關鍵，可以在電能質量分析和數字功率表的作電流采樣器獲得電流信號的幅值和相位。

更靈活的使用
A40B分流器的電壓輸出標稱值為0.8V。相對于傳統的45/75 mV分流器，輸出電壓高，大大提高了信噪比，可以非常方便地配用精密電壓表或其他測量儀器，100A電流對應的電阻為8mW，隨著電阻增加到80W，電流量程為10mA。另外，1mA的分流器有內部有一個電池供電的緩沖放大器，可以驅動輸出電壓，使得 800W 的分流電阻與測量裝置產生zui小的相互影響。
A40B分流器出廠附帶著可溯源的校準報告。如客戶需要，可選購符合17025A標準要求的校準報告。

2 Above 1 kHz interpolate the specification （si） between frequencies fupper and flower using:
si = slower + （fi – flower） × （supper – slower） ÷ （fupper – flower）
3 Add 20 μA/A if relative humidity is outside specification limits.
4 1 mA specifications apply with the battery charger disconnected.
5 Specifications assume no loading effects due to the voltage-sensing device. See Output Voltage Measurement – Loading Effects in the operating information.
