AC Spark testers

Product catalog summary
Overview: Buckleys manufactures specialist AC spark testers designed for testing the integrity of coatings and linings over conductive materials. These testers are used to detect defects in non-conductive coatings ranging from 3mm to 30mm in thickness.
Product Types:
  • PST-100: A lightweight, ergonomic hand-held spark tester available in basic, standard, and complete kits. It generates an adjustable AC voltage between 10kV and 55kV and is available for 110V or 230V input.
  • ST-AC Pro’: A compact and robust spark tester suitable for inspecting thicker coatings and linings, especially useful for butt-welded and overlap joints. It features a pulsed-ring output adjustable between 10kV and 55kV and can switch between 110V and 230V input.
Specifications:
  • PST-100: Available in models for 110V and 230V input, with an output voltage range of 10kV to 55kV and a frequency of 100kHz pulsed at 50Hz.
  • ST-AC Pro’: Supports both 110V and 230V input, with similar output voltage and frequency specifications as the PST-100.
Kits and Accessories:
  • PST-100 Kits: Include various electrodes, extension rods, and carrying cases depending on the kit type (basic, standard, complete).
  • ST-AC Pro’ Kit: Comes with a flexible probe, mains lead, and instruction manual.
  • Accessories: A wide range of electrodes and accessories are available, including spark gap setters, extension rods, and various probe electrodes.

AC Spark Testers Buckleys manufacture two types of spark tester which provide a quick and convenient method of testing the integrity and locating defects in a variety of coatings. Spark Testers generate AC voltages of typically between 10 and 55kV. They are used for testing thicker nonconductive coatings and linings of between 3mm and 30mm over conductive materials. Spark Testers have no audible or visual alarms to indicate a fault and rely on the operator to observe a spark jumping through a flaw in the coating material. Due to their AC high-frequency operation they can find faults in 100% coated...
