Technical Arc Calibrator Pro 600

Introduction Technical Arc Calibrator Pro 600 

The easiest & fastest way to calibrate every type & make of welding machine. Just plug into your machines output terminals & get testing!

Multiple load resistors are built into a tough aluminium enclosure, the resistive loads are selected using the front panel switches. Each of the 5 main load switches can be operated independently & a 6 step fine switch gives more precise adjustment of load, the result is over 150 different load values allowing testing of all MIG/MAG, TIG & MMA power sources (GMAW, FCAW, GTAW, SMAW) up to 600A.

This wide range of load resistance allows testing on all welding processes in accordance with the volt/amp relationship formula. For instance on MIG/MAG at 300A you can achieve 29V, on TIG you can achieve 22V, on MMA 32V etc. Every load setting is marked with the approx. current rating but all will withstand high overloads as often happens during load testing of welding equipment. Load resistances start at 5Ω & with all loads switch on resistance is 0.053Ω.

Calibrator Pro models utilise ‘stack effect’ cooling to pull in cold air at the bottom & force hot air out of the top this provides exceptional cooling for the load resistors allowing over 20kw of peak power.

Calibrator Pro instrument panels use the most precise high stability electronics available & accuracy levels exceed the highest requirements of IEC60974-14. This allows calibration & testing to precision grade where needed. Suitable for the most demanding industries such as nuclear, aerospace, Government laboratories etc.

Features of TECARC Calibrator Pro 600

• Accuracy +/-0.25% allowing precision grade calibration & testing.
• Displays AC-DC volts & TRMS/complex waveform to 2 decimal places.
• Displays AC-DC amps & TRMS/complex waveform to 1 decimal places.
• Displays temperature & wire feed speed (if optional plug in Tachometer purchased).
• Display actual welding parameters instead of using resistive load – perfect for automated welding.
• 4mm sockets to plug in any multi-meter such as a Fluke & display/compare V & A readings.
• Digital hold / un-hold function to capture instrument values.

Recalibration of Calibrator Pro 600

Recalibration is even easier now, with multiple options.

1. Return whole unit to our factory, (easy solution for UK customer).
2. Send just the instrument panel (best solution for export customers, instrument panel can easily be sent by DHL etc).
3. We supply you the information for recalibration by a local calibration lab or experienced Engineer with test equipment.
