Vacuum Interrupters Launches the LRTS10 Battery-Powered 10 A Digital Micro-Ohmmeter

en.Wedoany.com Reported - Vacuum Interrupters introduces the new LRTS10 low-resistance test set, the first digital micro-ohmmeter built on the Milwaukee® M18™ REDLITHIUM™ battery platform. The company is a developer of electrical test equipment and a manufacturer of replacement vacuum interrupters, pole assemblies, parts, and components for medium-voltage vacuum circuit breakers and contactors.

The LRTS10 is compatible with all Milwaukee M18 batteries. Technicians do not need to stop and recharge—they can swap in a fresh battery and continue testing; crews already using this platform can power the test set with battery packs kept on their trucks. Each unit ships with test leads and a cable bag, a charger, and one M18 XC5.0 battery, which supports more than 1,100 tests.

The test set offers six user-selectable test currents, resolution down to 1.0 µΩ, and measurement accuracy of 0.2% + 5.0 µΩ on the 10 A range. Technicians can use the LRTS10 to verify low-resistance connections in the field, in the shop, in the lab, or anywhere a four-wire Kelvin measurement confirms a sound connection.

Typical applications for the LRTS10 include switchgear and circuit breakers, bolted busbar joints and cable terminations, terminal blocks, transformers and motors, as well as grounding and bonding connections.

Vacuum Interrupters is also the developer of the Magnetron Atmospheric Condition vacuum interrupter tester (MAC-TS4), the CBT-1203 circuit breaker timer, the VITS60M vacuum integrity test system, and the LRTS10 low-resistance test set, and supplies replacement vacuum interrupters, pole assemblies, and components for virtually all medium-voltage vacuum circuit breakers and contactors. The company operates a high-voltage test laboratory and has SF6 interrupter refurbishment/replacement capabilities.
