16451B Dielectric test fixture continued
Compensation and measurement: There are three measurement methods for the
16451B. They are the Contacting Electrode Method (used with 16451B’s rigid metal
electrode, without any electrodes on the material under test), the Contacting Electrode
Method (used with thin film electrodes made on the material under test), and the Non-
Contacting Electrode (Air Gap method). Select the suitable measurement method and
the suitable electrode for the material under test according to the following table.
Summary of measurement method
Open and short compensations are recommended in combination with the cable length
compensation before measurement. When measuring above 5 MHz with the E4990A,
load compensation is also recommended. First, set the instrument’s cable length
compensation function to 1 m. Then, open and short compensation is performed by
using the furnished electrode attachment. Load compensation is performed, by prepar-
ing a working standard. After performing open, short and load compensations, the MUT
is sandwiched by the parallel electrodes and the capacitance is measured. Relative
permittivity is calculated from the measured capacitance in the following manner:

16452A Liquid dielectric test fixture
Terminal connector: 4-Terminal Pair, SMA
Dimensions (approx.): 8
5 (H) x 85 (W) x 37 (D) [mm]
Weight (approx.): 1400 g
Measurement accuracy: A + B + C [%]
Up to 120 MHz (4-Terminal Pair): Material continued
Description: This test fixture provides accurate dielectric constant and impedance
measurements of liquid materials. The 16452A employs the parallel plate method,
which sandwiches the liquid material between two electrodes to form a capacitor.
A LCR meter or an impedance analyzer is then used to measure the capacitance
created from the fixture.
Applicable instruments: E4980A/AL, E4990A
Frequency: 20 Hz to 30 MHz
Operating temperature: –20 to 125°C
Maximum voltage: 30 Vrms
Material capacity: Required sample liquid capacity depends on the gap of the electrodes.
Furnished accessories:
Requires the following interface cables to connect to a measurement instrument. Select
accordingly to the required temperature conditions.
* Four BNC(m) to BNC(m) adapters (P/N 1250-0216) are needed to connect
the 16048G/H and 16452A.

Compensation and measurement: Short compensation is recommended
in combination with the cable length compensation before measurement.
First, set the instrument’s cable length compensation function to 1 m. Then,
short compensation is performed by using the furnished shorting plate. Open
compensation is not performed, but its values are used in the dielectric constant
equation as shown below:

ω : Angular frequency (ω= 2πf)
The following figures below show how compensation and measurement is
performed.
Note: The 16452A is not capable of measuring salt or ionic solutions or other
liquids with bulk conductivity due to the electrode polarization phenomenon.
Keysight is not responsible for any damage (e.g., corrosion, smear) to the 16452A
caused by the reaction between the liquid under test and the 16452A.
