Clinton Instrument Company has launched
the Model HF-15B series of high frequency
AC spark testers. This series replaces the
HF-15A, which was first shown at Interwire
in 2001. Since then over 10,000 HF-15A units
have been shipped worldwide.
In addition to the reliability of Clinton
Instrument spark testers, the HF-15B offers
customers the ability to utilise many new
technologies. New features provide more
information, easier integration, and flexible
solutions in response to difficult applications.
The HF-15B series features a large adjustable
alphanumeric display with multiple view
options. Customers can monitor total fault
count, specific types of fault conditions, and
per cent load. The front panel also offers
optional password security.
PLC integration is effortless when connecting
with Modbus RTU via RS-485 full duplex.
Optional Ethernet/IP, Profinet, Profibus,
Modbus TCP, and analog communications
are offered as an integrated component
with the new series.
New features of the HF-15B series also
include:
• Split electrode design for easy string up
• Differentiation between four types of
fault conditions including single or multiple
pinholes, direct metal to metal contact and
gross bare wire
• DSP-based voltage regulation and fault
detection
• Voltage watchdog circuit – to ensure the
spark tester is always making the preset
voltage
• Four relay outputs with selectable functions
— including high voltage ON indicator, fault
