08 Advertorial New test-and-tag print kit provides low-cost solution Emona Instruments announces the release of the new PAC3760 DL low-cost data logging appliance tester and test tag printing kit. Typically test-and-tag systems with tag printing functionality cost several thousand dollars. For the first time, the PAC3760 DL appliance testing and tag printing kit offers a solution for around $2000. The new PAC3760 DL is a breakthrough tester that stores test results that can then be downloaded to any PC spreadsheet or database program. No special software is required to generate an electronic logbook to replace your handwritten logbooks. The PAC3760 DL also connects to the battery-powered PAC-OPT printer to print test tags. The PAC-OPT’s unique “Plug N Print” operation simply requires connection to the PAC3760 DL via serial cable. All you have to do is conduct your test and press the print button to output your test tag. No time-consuming set-up is required as the PAC-OPT prints a generic test tag. With the PAC3760 DL users will never have to write log books and test tags again, which is the most time-consuming part of testing and tagging. The PAC3760 DL is based on the popular PAC3760 series of portable appliance testers, which have been used in testing and tagging Australia-wide for more than 12 years. The DL’s data logging and tag printing version builds on the range’s long list of popular features. The PAC3760 DL conducts earth bond, insulation and polarity tests, as well as leakage current tests for Class I and Class II appliances and leads, and carries out trip time tests of 10mA and 30mA portable and fixed RCDs with the inbuilt isolation transformer. When used in conjunction with the optional PAC-TPL 3 phase adaptor, the PAC3760 DL can also carry out three-phase leakage testing of 10A, 16A, 20A and 32A three-phase appliances. The PAC3760DL operates under mains or battery power, providing users with maximum flexibility. The unit is designed with simple nine button operation: Class I, Class II, Leakage, 10mA RCD, 30mA RCD and three-phase test buttons . It also has buttons that allow you to save results, recall/download results and print test tags. Results are displayed as a Pass or Fail as well as actual readings. Once the user selects the required test, the PAC3760 DL conducts an automatic sequence of tests, eliminating the need for complicated on-screen menus. Other features include automatic sensing of IEC or extension leads that adds a polarity test to the sequence, and automatic detection when the appliance is on. The PAC3760 DL’s low price for a data logging and test tag printing kit make it an ideal solution for testing and tagging applications requiring compliance with AS/NZS3760, whether for use by a competent person testing their own equipment through to the professional electrical contractor providing a testing service.
