The GAYMAR MT590 Medi-Therm II Test Tool is a dedicated test tool
available from Gaymar Industries. This tool was designed to allow for more
convenient and safer testing of the high temp backup thermostats by
eliminating the need to remove the lower wraparound cover and avoiding
the use of a shorting jumper that could be accidentally left inside the
machine. In addition, the test tool can be used to monitor input/output
signals between the head and base of the machine through the use of
indicator lights. This feature can be of great value during any troubleshooting
process. This test tool also provides a patient probe simulator which allows
testing of the machine without a precision decade box.
For more information on the MT590 Test Tool, contact the Gaymar
Technical Service Department.
