Safe Discharge Unit

The unique failsafe design of the SD300 incorporates a two-handed push button operation to initiate and maintain the energy discharge, ensuring that the operator cannot come into contact with the live circuit. In addition, the operator is totally isolated from the discharged energy by a fully insulated and robust instrument case rated at IP66.

The totally self contained instrument comes complete with fully shrouded fused test leads and includes an inbuilt test lead and fuse proving facility. Other safety features include an automatic pre-use self test, protection against prolonged connection to live operating circuits and monitoring of critical component temperatures with automatic cut off.

As the first instrument of its type the SD300 provides an innovative and highly effective solution for the safe discharge of electrically charged equipment – protecting the operator from danger and the equipment under test from potential damage.
