Voltage Adjust
This procedure controls the high voltage level used in the dielectric withstand test.
Testing can be terminated at any time by pressing the RESET button. Use the procedure below to
set it.
1.
Set the Test Timer switch, and Failure Shutdown switch to ON position.
2. Disarm the Zero Voltage Start safety feature by turning the voltage knob to the minimum.
3. Push the RESET button. The TEST button should light.
4. Push the TEST button.
5. After the FULL VOLTAGE indicator lights, use the Voltage Adjust knob to set the desired
output voltage.
6. Push the RESET button to terminate the test.
High Voltage Test Time Adjust
This procedure sets the length of time the HT-5000P ac/dc 200mA will conduct the high
voltage test. The test time is specified by the safety agencies, and is tied to the test voltage. Most
safety agencies will allow a much shorter test (usually 1 second vs. 1 minute) if the voltage is
increased by 20%. The factory set is for 1 second. Consult the safety agencies on the test time for
the type of equipment being tested. If a different test time is required, use this procedure to set it.
1. Connect the tester to a correctly rated source of supply and turn ON the power switch.
2. Push the
RESET button. The TEST indicator should light, indicating that the HT-5000P
ac/dc 200mA is ready.
3. Adjust the Test Time potentiometer. As soon as the potentiometer starts turning, the voltage
meter will display “d” with the new value. Test Time can be set in 1 second increments from
1 to 90 seconds.
Setting the Test Timer Switch
The Timer Control switch allows test time to be controlled by the HT-5000P ac/dc
200mA internal timer or to continue until terminated by the operator.
When this switch is in the DEFEAT position, the test will continue only while the TEST
button is held down. The minimum test time is approx. 1 second.
When this switch is in the ON position, the test time will be controlled by the HT-5000P
ac/dc 200mA internal timer. For information on how to set this time, see instructions above.
The Test Timer must be defeated if Breakdown Detect Defeat is desired. See Table 3-3
for details.
