TME is excited to announce the addition of MICROTEST products to its catalogue, offering state-of-the-art solutions for testing equipment and circuits.
MICROTEST, a Taiwanese company established in 1993, has earned a strong reputation across multiple markets.
The brand’s devices are tailored for industrial production lines, quality assurance, research and development departments, and measurement laboratories.
This partnership highlights the availability of high-performance LCR meters, impedance analyzers, and safety testers, with plans to expand the product range further.
LCR meters and impedance analysers
LCR meters and impedance analyzers from MICROTEST are available in various versions distinguished primarily by their frequency range, which spans from 10 Hz to 1...50 MHz (depending on the model) with basic accuracy up to ±0.05%.
They are stationary devices designed for professional applications in laboratories and electronic circuit manufacturing.
To support such use, the LCR meters feature several functionalities that enhance their operation: automatic level control (ALC), connectivity to computers and data analysis software (via RS232, GPIB, LAN, or USB interfaces), and the ability to measure resistance and inductance simultaneously.
It can simultaneously test up to four parameters of a component and it’s also worth noting that the measurement time can be as short as less than 3 ms.
The 6632 series impedance analyzers share similar characteristics with built-in DC Bias voltage ±12V. A key feature is the optional Equivalent Circuit Analysis, enabling designers to simulate circuit components before selection.
Their capabilities include testing admittance, Q factor, phase angle θ, conductance, permeability, reactance, susceptance, loss factor D, relative permittivity and, naturally, inductance, impedance, DCR (DC resistance), and equivalent series resistance (ESR).
All these functions are accessible via a user-friendly interface (the units are equipped with 7-inch colour displays). Measurements can be performed in series or parallel, with cable length compensation (0...2 m).
Safety testers
High-voltage safety testers (also known as HiPot Testers) are used to test the insulation of various electrical equipment and circuits by checking the dielectric strength of coatings and other components intended for the protection of users, and in this way making sure that the design of equipment, installations and components is safe.
The MCT-7630/7631 models from MICROTEST are testers designed for industrial and laboratory testing. Depending on the model, they offer 1 or 8 channels, take measurements up to 5000 V AC and 6000 V DC (with measuring voltage range of 10...1000 V DC) and support insulation resistance measurements up to 12 GΩ.
Their functionalities also include True RMS value measurement, arcing detection (transients detection), a number of manual and automated tests with adjustable ramp time (from 0.1 s to 10 s) and measuring time from 0.1 s to 999 s. Similarly to the devices described above, these testers can be operated remotely (via digital interfaces), as well as locally (with an optional control pedal).
