Seaward Sentinel 500 Electrical Safety Tester

The Sentinel 500 electrical safety tester enables manufacturers to check their products in-house to ensure compliance with the relevant international technical conformance standards such as EN 60598, UL 1598, IEC and CSA C22.2 before being sent to third party test/approval houses. This can reduce product time-to-market, saving time and costs in the process. The fast, safe and accurate testing of high voltages up to 5kV AC and 6kV DC is provided across the range while accurate testing up to 500 VA AC power output - allowing for 100mA tripping currents, a requirement in many standards - is available on the Sentinel 500 and 501 units A remote start terminal and signal I/O port allows for remote starting, safety interlocking and PLC control while an enhanced safety feature will automatically cut off the output voltage within 150?s where normal output voltages are detected or when the upper or lower current trip limits are reached while the device is under test. The Clare Sentinel series is ideal for R&D facilities and compliance laboratories, while design, quality assurance, and manufacturing and production engineers will also benefit from the easy-to-use safety test features.
