Ritz Tester is easy to handle and can be operated by a single lineman, by directly touching the area to be tested. Display reads “APPROVED” or “NOT-APPROVED”, depending on the leakage current through the pole being tested.
Ritz Tester simulates the same kind of test specified on ASTM F-711 Standard. The test performed by Ritz Tester is a guarantee that the equipment is ready for work. This is not valid though, for issuing Test Certificates.
Four models are available:
- LS-80 / LS-81 / RT-110 / RT-220
Models LS-80 and LS-81 (standard size), RT-110 and RT-220 (reduced size) test poles by applying 100 kV to every 30cm, per standard, with poles set up on horses horizontally.
- LS-80/WD / LS-81/WD
Models LS-80/WD and LS-81/WD (wet/dry) provide electrical tests on dry and wet sticks (by means of a switch on the front panel of the tester). When switched to Wet, 75 kV is applied to every 30 cm (1 ft) down the pole and when switched to Dry, 100 kV is applied to every 30 cm (1 ft) down the pole.
A DVD with operating instructions is supplied with the Ritz Tester Wet/Dry.
