R1L-E2A MicroOhm & Bond Meter

Brand: Tegam

The Model R1L-E2A is the only electrical bonding meter certified to ATEX, UL and CE intrinsically safe standards. 

It is used on the Lockheed F-35 Joint Strike Fighter and C-130 Hercules airframes as well as the Sikorsky S-70, S-92 and Seahawk helicopters to test electrical bonds on antenna installations, electrical safety grounds and lighting protection systems. 

A rugged heavy-duty plastic case is provided to contain and protect the instrument. 

When closed, a gasket seals the lid to keep out water and dirt when the Model R1L-E2A is transported through rain or other environmentally hostile conditions. 

When the lid is open, a second gasket provides a seal for the front panel, and all panel openings are sealed to prevent water entry, as is the removable battery cover. 

Two different styles of 4-Wire Kelvin probes are available to adapt to the physical conditions. 

Both the large pistol grip probes and the smaller hand probes are designed with static dissipating properties and are an integral part of the intrinsic safety system. 

The probes have a choice of replaceable tips to further accommodate the work requirements. 

The Model R1L-E2A is battery powered by three internal heavy-duty alkaline "D" cells. 

Front panel controls include a POWER ON-OFF switch and a rotary range selector switch. 

Five resistance ranges are provided from 2 MilliOhms to 20 Ohms.
