A new electrical safety tester has been introduced to ensure that lighting equipment comply with the Lighting Association’s code of practice and international standards.
The new low cost Clare Luminaire is a dedicated tester designed specifically for manufacturers and distributors of lighting equipment.
In manual mode a simple push button action makes the bench top instrument easy to operate with easy to follow on screen user instructions making test activation fast and simple.
In addition, programmable test sequences can be set up for automatic test sequencing through all required electrical safety tests including earth bond, insulation resistance, class I and class 2 AC flash/hipot, load/run test, continuity and polarity tests.
An internal memory has the capacity to store the results of up to 1,000 tests and direct connection to a PC allows the downloading of test data for further storage and analysis purposes. Product serial numbers can be scanned into the tester and stored against test results for quality control records.
The Luminaire can also be connected directly to a label printer for the immediate production of safety and compliance labels for attachment to the lighting equipment.
Special safety interlocks and protection routines provide enhanced operator safety and a full range of test station accessories can also be supplied, including warning beacons for test areas in factories or production locations to meet the EN50191 guidelines.
