Product catalog summary
Overview: The ST-AC Pro’ AC Spark Tester is designed for inspecting thicker coatings and linings, particularly useful for checking butt-welded and overlap joints on plastic fabrications. It is extensively used in industries such as petrochemical, pipeline construction, and plastic and rubber manufacturing.
Specifications: The device can detect flaws in non-conductive membranes up to 30mm thick. It operates with an output voltage range of 10-55kV peak high-frequency AC and an output frequency of 100kHz ring pulsed at 50Hz. The mains voltage is 110 or 230V AC 50/60Hz. The unit weighs 4.05Kg and measures 175mm x 90mm x 235mm.
Features: The tester includes a strong aluminum case, is mains powered, and has an adjustable output voltage. It features an illuminated ‘output-on’ indicator, a 2-meter test probe handle lead, and a large carrying handle/desk stand. It is CE approved and compliant with CEN/TC 249/SC5/WG2 standards for testing welded joints.
Standard Kit Includes: The kit comprises the ST-AC Pro’ unit with a test probe handle, a 150mm flexible probe, a 2m mains lead, and a comprehensive instruction manual.
Accessories: Various accessories are available, including pointed probes, spark gap setters, drum-brush electrodes, and insulated extension rods. A comprehensive kit with additional accessories is also available.
After Sales Service/Technical Support: Buckleys provides a one-year ‘back-to-base’ warranty and recommends annual re-calibration. Full repair and calibration services are available, and technical support can be accessed via phone or email.
