Spark Test - 10kV

spark test, suvi ispitivac 10kV

high voltage ( dry ) tester

Spark tester probe is made of stainless steel (outer / protective part and the probe itself). Insulation between probe housing and internal probe is made of high quality insulation. Total safety for the operator is provided with multiple protection system - mechanical and electronic.

Technical description

"Spark Test" - dry tester consists of two parts that can be delivered together in a kit or separately - individually.

  1. The control unit
  2. High voltage probe

The control unit

The control unit include all the components required to generate and control high voltage, as well as components for measurement, detection and signaling of A spark (sound and light signal). As well as all the elements for protection.

Quadruple safety of the operator is ensured:

  • 1) HV probe protective cover - that prevents operator to touch the probe HV part during operation of the device.
  • 2) Protective switch on the probe cover that automatically turns off the high Voltage if the probe cover is opened.
  • 3) A spark current level of detection is < 2 mA which is much lower than the permitted touch voltage (50mA)
  • 4) In the case that all previous modes of protection fail, short-circuit of HV transformer is Iks. <10mA, which is still far below the permissible touch voltage of 50mA

High-Voltage Probe

HV probe is made of high quality materials that ensure long life and reliable operation. Body of the probe(protection of the probe) is made of high quality stainless steel sheet 2 mm thickas as well as inner (working) part of the probe. High quality stainless steel sheet in addition to good-look of the probe provides mechanical resistance and resistance to adverse working conditions, such as the presence of water (corrosion resistance and easy descaling). Also, high quality insulation materials are used ( insulation of the internal part of the HV probe as well as HV power line).

As for the part that is in constant contact with the product (cable), it can be produced in various forms, depending on the purpose of the device:

  • Stainless steel chain for slow machines and smooth product
  • Stainless steel beads - balls for slow and medium speed machines
  • Stainless steel shaft or brass brush, for faster machines
  • "Squirrel cage" - stainless steel for large diameter product with an uneven surface
