In the Oilfield and many other industries, portable, multi-conductor cables are critical to every day operation, but even under the best circumstances the stress of handling them results in unseen damage that can cause down-time that costs thousands of dollars. Testing cables is often a simple matter for technicans, but operational staff don't have the time or knowledge to operate a multimeter. What's more, testing a cable often takes four hands, and then there's a chance of confusion and error. What is needed is a simple tool that allows field personnel to quickly test a cable without special training - A Cablechecker Continuity Tester and Mapper that can instantly test a cable, recognise it's configuration, and if necessary, provide wire-by-wire connectivity.
Cablechecker Features:
- 2X20 Character display
- Test up to 24 pins total
- One-button operation - most cables are tested with one push of the button.
- Built in library of custom cable configurations
- Custom cable recognition tables available
- Instant recognition of straight-through n-pin cables
- Available with multiple In and Out connectors for mutliple cable versions eg: male-male, male-female, femal-female, 9 to 25 pin, etc.
- Powers OFF when finished for long battery life.
- High impedance inputs to spot leakage due to damaged insulation or water ingress
Benefits:
- Time savings- faster than any tech with a multimeter. Plug in the two ends, and press "Go".
- Quickly confirm, or rule-out, cable problems
- Test an lists ALL connections between any 2 or more pins at EITHER end. Catches faults that techs can easily miss.
- Spots incorrect wiring- reversed pin-outs, rotated connector bodies
- Identifies change-over cables by name or number
- Better use of technical staff resources. Portable cables, like light bulbs, shouldn't require a technician on-site to change.
- Order with all the receptacles normally used in your business, not just meter leads
