VC 6013 LC METER In Pakistan

Description:
The VC6013 is a digital capacitance meter manufactured by VICI (also branded as Victor). Unlike a full LCR meter, this device focuses specifically on measuring capacitance. Moreover, it offers accuracy and simplicity, making it ideal for everyday use. Therefore, it serves as a practical tool for both electronics hobbyists and professionals.

Key features:

• High accuracy: It offers high-precision readings, especially for low capacitance values, with a reported accuracy of ±(0.5%+1) for the lower ranges.
• Wide measuring range: The meter can measure capacitance from 0.1 picofarads (pF) up to 20 millifarads (mF), with nine different manual ranges.
• Overload protection: It features a full protection function with a recoverable fuse to prevent damage from over-voltage.
• Capacitor self-discharge: A safety feature is its ability to automatically discharge a capacitor with a voltage of less than 250V, protecting both the user and the meter from damage.
• Auto power-off: To save battery life, the meter automatically powers down after about 30 minutes of inactivity.
• Display: It has a large, 3.5-digit LCD with a maximum display count of 1999, making readings clear.
• Zero adjustment: A manual knob on the front panel allows for zero adjustment to cancel stray capacitance from test leads, improving accuracy.
• Design: The device has a lightweight, compact, and streamlined design with an anti-vibration holster for durability. 

Technical specifications:

• Display: 1999 counts, 65 × 41mm LCD.
• Capacitance ranges and accuracy:
  • 200 pF: ±(0.5%+7)
  • 2 nF to 200 $\mu$F: ±(0.5%+1)
  • 2000 $\mu$F: ±(2%+5)
  • 20 mF: ±(3%+10)
• Measurement frequencies:
  • 200 pF to 2 $\mu$F: 800 Hz
  • 20 $\mu$F to 20 mF: 8 Hz
• Power source: 9V (6F22) battery.
• Operating environment: 0–40 °C, less than 80% relative humidity. 

Applications:

• Error testing and numerical analysis of capacitance values.
• Selecting and sorting capacitors during manufacturing and repair.
• Measuring capacitance in cables, switches, and PCB circuits.
• Use in educational labs and professional maintenance settings.
