Ground Bond Tester

For Safety Agency Compliance Testing

FEATURE Advanced, menu driven software
BENEFIT The easy to follow setup screens ensure that the operator

correctly sets up all test parameters.

FEATURE Tamper proof front panel controls
BENEFIT This makes it possible to limit user access to the setup

screens so that only authorized personnel with a security
password can change test parameters. Passwords are
programmable to ensure that the required test parameters
cannot be tampered with.

FEATURE 4 wire measurement & milliohm offset
BENEFIT These features minimize the effect of test lead

resistance. The four wire measurement technique (Kelvin
method) eliminates test lead resistance when using the
standard test leads. The milliohm offset function allows
the use of longer test leads and test fixtures without
compromising the test results.

FEATURE Storage of up to 10 different test programs
BENEFIT A real benefit for manufacturers that test different

products. This makes it possible to store all the various
test parameters required and quickly recall them for each
of the different products that need to be tested.

FEATURE Remote memory access
BENEFIT Up to three program memories can be accessed through

the remote control (PLC) port so that a manufacturer can
quickly toggle through the various programs without
going into the setup menu.

FEATURE Interconnection to HypotPLUS

®

II

BENEFIT By interconnecting the HYAMP

®

II and the

HypotPLUS

®

II Dielectric Withstand tester, a true
semi-automated test system is formed. The test system
can be configured to test Ground Bond first and then to
advance to the Dielectric Withstand test. The system can
also be set up to test Ground Bond and Dielectric
Withstand simultaneously for greater time savings and
increased throughput.

FEATURE Line & load regulation
BENEFIT This system maintains the output current to within

2% of setting from its minimum to maximum resistance
range and over the line voltage range to ensure that
test results remain consistent and within safety
agency requirements.

FEATURE Selectable output frequencies of 50 or 60 hertz
BENEFIT HYAMP

®

II was designed for the global market. This
feature makes it simple for the user to select the output
frequency so that products can be tested at the same
frequency at which they will be used.

FEATURE Adjustable output current, voltage & milliohm trip
BENEFIT This capability makes the HYAMP

®

II versatile enough to
meet all safety agency specifications for Ground Bond
test requirements.

FEATURE LCD displays set-up parameters & results
BENEFIT A front panel LCD allows the operator to monitor the test.

The display holds the results after a test item pass or
failure so that the operator can easily review the test
results. Indications of low fail and high fail are clearly
displayed after a failure.

FEATURE PLC remote inputs & outputs
BENEFIT Standard 9 pin interface provides outputs for Pass, Fail,

Reset Out, Start Out and Test in Process. A second 9 pin
interface provides inputs for Test, Reset, Withstand
Processing and Program Select. This gives the user all the
basic remotes required to configure the HYAMP

®

II
through simple PLC relay control or to interconnect
to HypotPLUS

®

II.

FEATURE CE approved & TÜV listed
BENEFIT You can be assured that HYAMP

®

II is safe to use since
the TÜV-GS mark means it has passed the tough design
and performance requirements as called out in EN 61010
and IEC 1010 International Safety Standards. CE approval
means that HYAMP

®

II can be used anywhere in Europe.

HYAMP®II Features and Benefits

The HYAMP®II Ground Bond
tester is a state-of-the-art
instrument featuring full
microprocessor control to
enhance ease of use and operator
safety. HYAMP®II provides you
with all the capability you need
to perform Ground Bond tests
required by UL, CSA, VDE, IEC,
TÜV, European Norms and other
safety agencies. HYAMP®II can
be used as a stand-alone tester or
it can be interconnected to the
HypotPLUS®II to form a
semi-automated test system.
HYAMP®II eliminates all the
weaknesses that are inherent with
older, analog designed products.
