  • Fast compiled software
  • Integral Windows based PC controller
  • Tests devices with up to 8 form C contacts
  • Performs all basic parametric relay tests
  • Option for relays with integral FET/transistor/timing pin
  • Reed switch test option
  • Menu style programming
  • Full data logging
  • Test programs compatible with Reflex 10, 10M and 510
  • Automatic handler and solenoid-based test fixture support

The ASY0700 adds programmable 0 – 30 Volt / 0 – 10 Amp contact load capability.

Dielectric breakdown (Hipot) and Insulation Resistance (Leakage) testing may be added to the RT290 parametric tests using the RT900 high voltage test system.

AC coil drive capability over the range 0-270Vac and 50-400Hz may be added using the external ASY0710 power supply unit. This unit can be configured with a second programmable low power output primarily intended to be connected to the control pin of timing relays. A multiplexer option provides total coil pin multiplexing over eight output pins. All connections are fully Kelvin. Please click here for more information.

'Testing two single contacts on each RT90/RT290 changeover contact'

How to connect two single contacts to each RT90 or RT290 changeover contact wiring to enable a relay constructed as (say) 2 Form-A and 2 Form-B contacts to be tested. Diagrams show how to connect the Kelvin wiring together with a small amount of additional circuitry and how to control it from the test.
