Superior Detection and SafetyEquipped with advanced high-voltage detection, the Spark Tester WEG 100 ensures reliable identification of insulation defects. Both audible and visual alarms, coupled with LED-supported indication, minimize risk to operators and maximize testing efficiency. The built-in safety interlock protects users from accidental exposure during operation, while compliance with IEC 62230 and IS 5831 underlines its adherence to international safety standards.
Versatile Compatibility and OperationsThis spark tester accommodates insulation materials including PVC, XLPE, rubber, and PE, making it versatile across multiple cable types. Operators can choose between manual and automatic control for tailored testing processes. The height adjustment mechanism via a manual knob and test speed selection (50-100 mm/min) offer precision, while the digital LED display presents instant results, simplifying quality checks on production lines.
FAQ's of Spark tester WEG 100:
Q: How does the Spark Tester WEG 100 identify insulation defects in cables and wires?
A: The Spark Tester WEG 100 uses a high-voltage copper brush electrode to probe cable insulation. When breakdowns or defects are present, the tester immediately activates LED indicators and triggers audible and visual alarms, ensuring clear identification of faults.
Q: What types of insulation materials are compatible with this spark tester?
A: This equipment is designed to test cables and wires insulated with PVC, XLPE, rubber, and PE, providing versatility across various manufacturing standards and specifications.
Q: When should the Spark Tester WEG 100 be used in the manufacturing process?
A: It is best employed during the final stages of wire or cable production, before packaging and shipment, to confirm the absence of insulation failures and uphold product quality.
Q: Where can the Spark Tester WEG 100 be installed for optimal operation?
A: With its tabletop mounting design and compact size (approx. 25 kg), the tester can be set up in quality assurance labs or directly on production lines to facilitate continuous and intermittent inspections.
Q: What is the procedure for adjusting the test setup for different cable diameters?
A: Operators can manually adjust the electrode height using a knob to accommodate cable diameters ranging from 1 mm to 20 mm, ensuring precise contact and accurate testing results.
Q: How does using the Spark Tester WEG 100 benefit cable manufacturers?
A: By quickly detecting insulation defects with high accuracy and instantaneous response, manufacturers can reduce the risk of faulty products reaching customers, ensuring consistent quality and compliance with IEC and IS standards.
