Clare Instruments has developed a new hipot
flash tester and scanner for the functional
and quality validation of a wide range
of electronic components.
The microprocessor controlled H2 Hal Scan
can be used to confirm the safety, integrity
and performance of semiconductor devices,
interconnections, wound components
(including transformers), switches and similar
devices used in the manufacture and
assembly of electronic and electrical products.
This advanced instrument incorporates five
fully isolated pairs of HT outputs, allowing
total flexibility when connecting test outputs
to shared test points. For example,
two separate output connection pairs may
share a common test point. Because all
output pairs are electrically isolated from
each other, two separate output pairs may
be connected with reverse polarity to the
same test points. This example would
allow both positive and negative DC hi-ipot
testing of the same sample device. |
Utilising direct connection to standard or
customised, multi-test point enclosures, the new H2 Hal Scan speeds-up complex hi-pot
test sequences associated with the sample,
batch or full production testing of components
and assemblies that require more
than one pair of hi pot test connections.
The Hal Scan has programmable voltage
outputs of 0-5kV AC and 0-6kV DC, allowing
user friendly control of test voltages,
ramping times, leakage limits and other
parameters, and allows multiple test voltage,
complex test sequences to be generated
safely and effectively.
Traceability of test results, and of any testing
configuration, is a key feature of the
new product. This is achieved by the
patented use of a simple bar code scanner,
and bar code label printer. This novel
approach to automating the test configuration,
allows full compliance with any current
or future ISO quality procedure.
Specialist software and a large capacity
internal database give the instrument the
ability to store test details and result
against serial numbers. Up to 6000 test
results can be stored in the unit's internal
memory, with outputs to produce labels,
reports and proof that components have
been tested.
The H2 Hal Scan complies with BS EN
50191 and has been designed for the fast
and effective testing or validation of components
in development laboratories, as
part of incoming goods quality assurance
test systems, in R&D centres and in Type
Testing Laboratories.
