Quick Tester 2136.51 - Model 8505

DISCONTINUED

Description: The Quick Tester Model 8505 is a hand-held instrument for performing quick, basic integrity tests on all transformers and capacitors used by electrical utilities. The Model 8505 verifies transformer winding continuity without requiring a full transformer ratio test. A single user can check a shipment of incoming transformers. Any units that have a defective coil can be quickly pinpointed and turned around for repair. The instrument provides simple, single-button operation whereby the user only needs to make the proper connections and push a button. Test results are clearly indicated by bright LEDs and (when applicable) a buzzer. The instrument includes captive cables with safety clips, a test probe, built-in fuse protection, and operates on four AA batteries.

Features:
• Checks transformer coil continuity
• Checks capacitor functionality
• Detects open or shorted coils and capacitors
• Automatically identifies device as an inductor or capacitor
• Single button operation
• Bright LED indicators and buzzer for L, C, open and short
• Test probe with 5.75" (146mm) shaft used for insertion into protective shroud to reach test point
• Multi-frequency source signals improves test reliability and accuracy
• Microprocessor-based design for control, stability and repeatability
• Built-in self-test for inductance and capacitance
• Fuse protected
• Battery operated; more than 2500 tests on a full charge
• Low battery indicator begins to blink when approximately 100 tests remain
