Tester, HCT-717, IEC 60754-1, IEC 60754-2, KS C IEC 60754-1, KS C IEC 60754-2, KWS 409 (5.12)

Introduction

FESTEC's IEC 60754-1&2 Tester measures gas volume of Halogen Acid (IEC 60754-1), pH concentration(PH Meter, Hydrogen ions, IEC 60754-2), Conductivity(IEC 60754-2) and etc. from a wire (cable) by radiant heat in the Tube Furnace (IEC 60754-1: 800°c, IEC 60754-2: 950°c) Especially, FESTEC's IEC 60754-1&2 is enable to test both IEC 60754-1 and IEC 60754-2 standards by one equipment and mode select function.
IEC 60754-1 is halogen-free cable came from and including the polymer to halogenated compounds on the basis of the additive compounds emitted during combustion, except the fluoridation hydracids, it is measure for gas of halogen volume, IEC 60754-2 for electrical or optical cable from compounds emitted during the combustion of measure the gas of oxidation limit. These FESTEC's IEC 60754-1&2 Tester is required by IEC standard. About reproducibility of the test, reliability and convenience of the user to insert the automatic feed devices for combustion boat, turning-rail for easy to put the specimen, the setting of automatic timer, air filtering and etc. this is all feature of FESTEC'S IEC 60754-1&2.

Specification

Test Result

• Measurement of the amount of halogen Acid gas [It is displayed in milligram of HCl per gram of the measured sample.] (The amount of Halogen Acid)
• Corrosiveness test by generating combustion gases
• Average value: Users have to test 3 test times and get values shall be measured and mean value, standard deviation, coefficient of variation shall be calculated.
  (Calculate the average value, standard deviation and coefficient of Variation.)
• pH Concentration of weight
• Conductivity of weight
