Electrical safety testing device EXP128

voltagecurrentcomputer-controlled

Overview
High Energy version, 5A/10A/25A/40A, 1 channel, up to 300 seconds (depending on the current value and the period of the slot). These exploders are intended for checks on production lines and in the laboratory, where user safety is at stake. This range of EXP128 is designed to generate constant current pulses whose value in time and amplitude is adjustable on pyrotechnic elements, making it possible to control the Energy involved. With an innovative design, they use recent technologies such as a touch screen and an Ethernet connection. They are fully digital and controllable.
