Applications:

While the USA does not have the level of regulation found in the UK, we are far more litigious. Implementing a regular inspection program that includes PAT testing of electrical equipment and appliances will help protect personnel from shock hazards, facilities from electrically induced fires and businesses from litigation. For businesses that manufacture and ship electrical products to the European Union, PAT testing at the factory will ensure that products shipped will pass import testing and not become a costly problem.

Ideal for portable appliance testing in locations like service workshops, hotels, schools, hospitals, prisons, long term care facilities, construction sites, offices, restaurants and sport facilities, the PAT450 can store up to 10,000 test results. It features 10 A and 25 A bond tests with high duty-cycle designed for fast testing, easy operation and all-day use. The PAT’s 250 V and 500 V insulation tests protect sensitive electronics.

Description:

Operators of electric tools and other electrical equipment must be protected from potentially dangerous flaws in workmanship or wear and tear. The PAT450 is designed to test portable electrical equipment for safe operation. The tests conform to the latest editions of European regulations and standards including VDE0701-0702 and the Code of Practice for the In-Service Inspection and Testing of Electrical Equipment in the UK.

The PAT450 has a memory capacity for storing up to 10,000 test results, and also 10 A and 25 A earth bond testing. The unit also includes 1.5 kV and 3 kV flash testing, ideal for tool rental outlets and service workshops where flash testing is routine. It has a high duty cycle, with the design tailored to fast testing, easy operation, and all-day use.

The PAT450 features a unique restart, so that when moving the tester from one room to another, it restarts instantly from the same menu where it was unplugged. This is a significant timesaver, allowing more tests per day.

USB communication provides convenient download to a standard USB memory stick. An on-board 10,000 record memory provides interruption-free testing for improved efficiency, with a large QWERTY keypad for fast data entry. The instrument is capable of working with standard barcode scanners and a thermal transfer barcode label printer operating directly from the USB port. Thermal transfer labels are highly resistant, stable and easily available.

Five soft-keys give direct access to frequently-used functions, accelerating navigation through menus and increasing productivity. Both standard and customer configurable test groups are available for fast, flexible asset testing.
