Introduction and Specifications
This manual contains complete operating, maintenance and calibration instructions for
the Compliance West USA Model HT-3000P Dielectric Withstand Tester.
The instrument is a bench-type Dielectric Withstand Tester with AC or DC Output,
designed for production line testing.
The HT-3000P features automatic one button operation, with numerous safety features
designed to protect the operator:
-
The Return Lead is directly connected to ground potential for operator safety.
- In case of trouble, the test can be immediately terminated at any time by pressing the
RESET button.
- Before the test can commence, the unit must be armed by pressing the RESET Button. The
test will not begin until the TEST Button is pushed.
- If a failure is encountered, the high voltage is immediately shut down, a buzzer sounds, and
any voltage stored in the equipment being tested is bled off by a resistor bank in the HT-
3000P. The voltage discharge progress is shown by the front panel meter.
- Failure modes are shown by the front panel LED's for quick troubleshooting.
Convenience and testing features include:
-
Test results are determined quickly, without operator intervention.
- Operator instructions are printed on the rear panel for quick reference.
- The HT-3000P allows custom setups for voltage ramp, test time and leakage limit.
- The Ground check can be defeated by a switch on the rear panel for testing of products
using a two wire power supply cord.
- Voltage is discharged by a resistor bank within the HT-3000P upon test completion.
Discharge progress is shown on the front panel meter.
- Ground continuity Pass/Fail resistance level is adjustable during the annual calibration
procedure.
The HT-3000P meets all safety agency criteria for automatic production line dielectric withstand
testers.
Your Tester is warranted for a period of one year upon shipment of the instrument to the original
purchaser.
