85RF II
High Frequency Probe
Instruction Sheet
Introduction
The 85RF II High Frequency Probe (the Probe) transforms a
dc voltmeter into a high frequency (100 kHz to 500 MHz) ac
voltmeter. Conversion from ac to dc is done on a one-to-one
basis and includes a range of 0.25 V rms to 30 V rms. The
Probe’s dc output is calibrated to be equal to the rms value
of a sine wave input.

Voltmeter Compatibility
The 85RF II can be used with a dc voltmeter that has an
input resistance of 10 Me, ±10 %. Voltmeters with higher
input resistances are usable if an external shunt is put
across the input terminals. The shunt value is set to
decrease the input resistance to 10 Me.

Operation
To operate the 85RF II Probe:
1. Connect the Probe output to a compatible voltmeter with
an applicable shunt (if necessary.) The Probe’s output low
must be connected to voltmeter low.
2. Set a voltage range (1 V dc reading for each 1 V rms
Probe input).
3. Connect the input low (clip lead or tip shield) to earth
ground.
WXWarning
Input low is intended to be connected to earth
ground. To prevent electrical shock, input low
(clip lead or tip shield) must be connected to
potentials of less than 30 V ac, 42 V peak, or
60 V dc.
Frequency Measurements
Frequencies less than 100 MHz
To measure frequencies less than 100 MHz:
1. Ground the 4-inch clip lead supplied with the Probe.
2. Touch the Probe tip to the circuit under test.
Frequencies greater than 100 MHz
To measure frequencies greater than 100 MHz:
1. Ground the 4-inch clip lead supplied with the Probe.
2. Touch the Probe tip to the circuit under test.
Note
Measurements above 100 MHz must be made with
minimum cable lengths and a terminated 50
e
system.
One inch or less of non-terminated coaxial cable (such as
a BNC adapter and 50
e
termination) is required for
measurements up to 300 MHz.
Frequencies greater than 300 MHz
To measure frequencies greater than 300 MHz:
1. Ground the 4-inch clip lead supplied with the Probe.
2. Touch the Probe tip to the circuit under test.
Note
Measurements above 300 MHz must have the Probe tip
and tip shield (input high and low) touch the circuit under
test to realize the rated accuracy of the Probe. Lead
lengths less than 1-inch can cause substantial errors.

WCaution
To prevent Probe damage, the dc component of
the input signal (includes transients) must not be
more than 200 V dc. Maximum Probe input is
30 V ac rms and 200 V dc. Measurements of an ac
signal riding a dc voltage can be made up to 200 V
dc. The input capacitor charges to the peak value
of ac plus dc. If the dc level is then changed by
more than 200 V dc, the transient can possibly
damage the Probe. The chance of damage can
prevented if the input capacitor is discharged at
the end of each measurement. Momentarily touch
Probe tip to the ground clip to discharge the
capacitor.
Performance Test/Calibration
The performance and calibration test is a verification test to
make sure that the 85 RF II is functional and correctly
calibrated. Use the procedure as an acceptance test and/or
calibration procedure (the Probe has one adjustment which
is R2). The recommended calibration interval is one year.
Note
If the Probe cannot be calibrated to the specifications in this
document, the Probe could be damaged and require
replacement or repair. Contact Fluke for instructions.
1. Configure the equipment as shown in Figure 2. Use the
leveled sine function of the scope output to set the AC
Calibrator signal generator for 1 V rms at 25 MHz and the
DMM to measure 1 V dc.

Equipment Configuration for Performance Test
2. The DMM will read between 0.950 V dc and 1.050 V dc. If
the Probe is functional but is not in these limits,
disassemble the Probe (refer to the “Probe Disassembly”
Section in this Instruction Sheet) and adjust R2 for a DMM
measurement between 0.990 V dc and 1.010 V dc.
Reassemble the Probe.
3. Move the unit in test to the Normal output of the calibrator
and decrease the output level to 0.250 V rms and 1 MHz.
The DMM will read between 0.223 V dc and 0.280 V dc.
4. Set the AC Calibrator to STDBY, decrease the frequency
to 100 kHz and increase the voltage to 30 V ac rms. (Do
not increase the voltage to more than 30 V ac.)
5. Set the AC Calibrator switch to OPER. The DMM will read
between 28.3 V dc and 31.8 V dc.
6. Move the unit in test back to the scope output and set the
level sine to 1 V rms 160 MHz. The DMM will read
between 0.9 V dc and 1.12 V dc. Increase the frequency
to 450 MHz. The DMM will read between 0.562 V dc and
1.780 V dc.

Probe Disassembly
Use this procedure to access the internal components of the
Probe which includes the R2 calibration adjustment.
1. Remove the bend relief screw and move it away from the
Probe.
2. Remove the Probe cover. You will see the R2 adjustment.
3. Carefully remove the Probe tip from the front of the Probe
with pliers.
4. Remove the ground lead screw from the Probe body.
5. Lift the rear of the printed circuit board up ¼-inch and pull
it away from the Probe tip.
6. To reassemble the Probe, do the steps in this procedure
backwards (start with step five and end with step one.)
Make sure that the gold pin on the front of the printed
circuit board aligns correctly in the Probe tip and that the
ground-lead nut is aligned with the hole in the Probe body.
How to Clean the Probe
WXWarning
For safe operation and maintenance of the product,
remove the input signals before you clean the
Product.
Use a soft cloth dampened in a weak solution of detergent
and water to clean the 85RF II. Do not use solvents.
