Elcometer 266 DC Holiday Detector

• Voltage calculator automatically sets the correct voltage from your coating thickness value
• Adjustable Voltage:
  • 0.5 kV - 1 kV in 50 V steps
  • 1 kV to 30 kV in 100 V steps
• Dual safety switch on the handle to avoid accidental switch on (Grey/orange probe handles only)
• Internal Voltmeter/ Jeep tester ensures that the test voltage equals the selected voltage
• Visual and audible alarms, Bright LEDs on the handle, as well as a loud buzzer, clearly indicate when a holiday is detected
• To change maximum voltage range, select a different handle; 5 kV, 15 kV or 30 kV DC or 30 kV DC continuous
• A wide range of probe brushes and rolling springs available

Safety Features

• Dual safety switch on the handle to avoid accidental switch on. 2-stage safety switch ensures that if the Elcometer 266 handle is not gripped, the handle will switch off.
• Specialized ribbing provides superior protection while an optional second-hand grip is ideal for two-handed use. This holiday detector has been specifically designed to meet standard EN61010.
• The speaker on the gauge clearly emits a ticking noise to indicate that there is voltage at the handle.
• A loud audible alarm is activated when a spark is detected. The beep volume can also be adjusted to ensure it can be heard - even in noisy environments.
