Axiom Test Equipment 2024 Calendar Front Cover
"Test Equipment
Museum"
Axiom Test Equipment 2024 Calendar Rear Cover
"Test Equipment
Museum"
December 6, 2023 - Continuing its tradition of creating wall calendars with a
test equipment theme, Axiom
Test Equipment just announced the availability of their year 2024 "Test Equipment
Museum" calendar. In the past, Axiom's calendars juxtaposed an unrelated topic with various types
of test equipment to result in a clever melding of the two. The 2022 "Top Hits" calendar used
historic rock music bands. "Traveling Through
Time," in 2023, references notable historical eras. Their approach on the "Test Equipment Museum"
calendar for 2024 is a bit different in that for each month the creators present a modern piece of test equipment
in contrast to a vintage version
of the same type. For example the month of January has both a circa 1948
Associated
Research Hypot Junior 412 instrument and a modern
Associated Research 7804 Hypot model. That represents more than
half a century technology evolution by the same company. Both were/are used to test
the ability of electronic assemblies to withstand high voltage potentials without
breaking down. Another example of a company's extensive history with the same product
type is the April page with a 1964 era HP 851A Spectrum Analyzer and a modern
Keysight N9020B Spectrum Analyzer. Keysight is the current incarnation of the
former Hewlett Packard test equipment line (Agilent was an interim name). Axiom
really reached back for the June exhibit by showing a 1920s-30s
B-Battery Eliminator RT-40 high voltage direct current power supply. "B" batteries
had a nominal output at 45 volts, and were were typically used with two in
series to feed 90 Vdc into a voltage multiplier circuit to generate the +300 V
bias for vacuum tube anodes. The counterpoise is a modern
EA Elektro-Automatik ELR10200-420 Regenerative DC Electronic Load. August
has a Heathkit IP-5220 Variable Isolated AC Supply as the vintage example. On
each page there is a brief historical blurb along with photos.
I checked and none of the yesteryear models of test equipment appearing on the
left side of the pages are currently available for rent from Axiom ;-) However,
some can still be found on eBay.
