TOS8030 General 11
Chapter 1 General
Provides a product overview and describes features and options.
1.1 Product Overview
This instrument is a withstanding voltage tester with a maximum output of
3 kV/10 mA. It is capable of performing withstanding voltage (dielectric strength)
tests for any electronic component or device*.
* The TOS8030 withstanding voltage tester was designed based on a product con-
cept of lightweight portability. As such, please check the specification require-
ments for the relevant standards when using the tester to test electronic devices
based on JIS, UL, or other standards. It is possible that the tester will not meet
some of the specification requirements.
• Note to the supervisor in charge of operation, and operator
The utmost care has been devoted to making this tester as safe as possible.
However, accidental contact with the device under testing (DUT), test lead,
test probe, or the periphery of the output terminals may result in electric
shock, since high voltage is applied to the DUT during tester operations.
Thus, use of the tester requires thorough safety measures, including provi-
sion of fences at the peripheries of the tester and DUT to prevent personnel
from approaching without good reason and to maintain safety.

0.1 range), it can be set in 0.1 mA steps.
It is capable of high-sensitivity and high-resolution detection, making it suitable for
withstanding voltage testing of electronic components.
■
Test time of 0.5 s to 99 s (x0.1 / x1 range)
The test time can be set to a duration in the range from 0.5 s to 99 s, and in 0.1 s
intervals in the range from 0.5 s to 9.9 s (x0.1 range).
