Capacitor Discharge Tester Description

KP-1060 Capacitor Discharge Tester (Residual Voltage Tester)

The KP-1060 Capacitor Discharge Tester, also known as a Residual Voltage Tester or Plug Capacitor Discharge Tester, is a precision instrument designed to evaluate residual voltage in electrical equipment after disconnection from the power supply. It complies with key international safety standards, including IEC 60601-1 (Medical Electrical Equipment – General Requirements for Safety), IEC 60335-1 (Safety of Household and Similar Electrical Appliances), and their Chinese equivalents GB9706.1 and GB4706.1.

Capacitor Discharge Tester simulates real-world plug disconnection at the voltage peak (positive or negative polarity) using a high-impedance probe (100 ยฑ5 Mฮฉ, capacitance <25 pF) to measure residual voltage and energy decay accurately. It supports manual and automatic testing modes for various pole combinations (L-N, L-G, N-G, pin-to-enclosure, and accessible capacitors). An industrial computer with NI acquisition card (14-bit resolution, 48 kS/s sampling) controls the process, displays results, retains maximum values, and alarms if limits (e.g., >60V or >34V) are exceeded. It includes three standard calibration samples (targeting ~102V, ~70V, ~44V peak) for verification.

Capacitor Discharge Tester FAQs

Q: What standards does the KP-1060 comply with?
A: It is designed for IEC 60601-1 (medical), IEC 60335-1 (household appliances), IEC 61010-1, IEC 62368-1, and Chinese GB equivalents, focusing on Clause 22.5 plug disconnection residual voltage tests.
Q: How does the peak disconnection work?
A: The tester automatically detects and disconnects the power at the AC voltage peak (within 5% accuracy), simulating real unplugging for consistent, repeatable results.
Q: What are the alarm limits for residual voltage?
A: It automatically alarms if residual voltage exceeds 60V (e.g., some medical applications) or 34V (e.g., IEC 60335-1 household limits) after the specified delay (typically 1 second).
Q: Can it test multiple pole combinations automatically?
A: Yes, automatic mode tests all three-pole combinations (L-N, L-G, N-G, etc.) separately, with 10 measurements per combination for statistical reliability.
