Used ALPHA METALS / COOKSON / SCS SC 1080 #137020 for sale

ALPHA METALS / COOKSON / SCS SC 1080 is a specialized computer-based equipment used in the testing of printed circuit boards (PCBs). It is designed to operate in the dielectric testing mode and the longitudinal testing mode. In dielectric testing, the system test evaluates the insulation resistance of the board material and also checks for corrosive residues, shorts and opens in the PCB. It is capable of performing testing at up to 10 KV, making it suitable for very high-voltage applications. During testing, the unit uses a rotating high voltage probe to apply a test charge to each major metal or resin based component on the board. The resistance value of each component is then measured and recorded. The results can be used to determine the quality and safety of the PCB. In longitudinal testing, the machine measures the resistance along the length of the board. It is designed to detect any increases or decreases in resistance due to shorts or opens in the board. In addition, it measures leakage current to determine if there are any current-carrying components alongside any non-current-carrying components. This is used to ensure that all components are correctly connected so that power can flow freely. SCS SC 1080 is a robust testing tool, suitable for use in a variety of applications. It is equipped with a user-friendly interface, allowing for ease of operation and setup. The unit is also lightweight and easy to transport, making it suitable for field testing of PCBs. In addition, the asset is provided with an optional software package that enables the results to be stored and tracked over time. Overall, COOKSON SC 1080 is an advanced and reliable model for testing printed circuit boards and components. With its reliable dielectric and longitudinal testing capabilities, it is a valuable addition to any production and test environment. Its user-friendly interface and optional software package make it easy to use and capable of creating a full audit trail for all testing operations.
