III. About your Presidium Multi Tester III
The Presidium Multi Tester III has been developed to help
distinguish between colorless diamonds and moissanite
using the combined principles of thermal and electrical
conductivity.
The measuring probe with electronic circuitry is
designed to detect and segregate data collected from
the gemstones via a customized micro-controller. The
information gathered will be displayed within seconds.
The Presidium Multi Tester III has been subjected to
thorough and extensive laboratory tests, and will
generally give a clear and reliable reading of the
gemstone being tested under proper use. However, you
are advised to conduct further supporting tests.
This tester was designed with the following
objectives:
• Help in the identification of diamonds and moissanite
with a single instrument;
• Provide fairly consistent and reliable test results under
proper use;
• Enhanced ergonomic features, such as visibility of
test results, maximum grip comfort, ease of use and
portability.
The Presidium Multi Tester III features the following:
• Retractable thermoelectric probe tip that ensures
constant pressure between probe tip and gemstone
• Industry’s thinnest probe tip (0.6mm) for testing
gemstones as small as 0.02ct
• Metal alert buzzer to ensure that probe tip is in contact
with gemstone during testing
• No waiting time between tests
• Ergonomic design with rubberized anti-slip grip for
better handling during testing
• 180-degree multi-viewing LED display
• International voltage compatibility
• Low battery indicator
