SafeTac VRDT3 VRD Tester
The SafeTac VRD Tester Series 3 is a portable, programmable unit designed to test all current DC VRD welders on the market. It ensures safe and accurate verification of VRD on/off transition, even for machines that require higher loads.
Explorer Case Available
Key Features
- Tests all current DC VRD units.
- Internal 200Ω resistor with programmable microprocessor precision voltage indicator.
- LED indicators: Green (<35V) and Flashing Red (>36V).
- Works with wired TIG handpiece triggers and RF electrode holder switches.
- Auto power-down after 3 minutes to extend battery life.
- Adaptors included for all welding terminal types (Stud, Lincoln, Small/Large Dinse).
- Inline tester for safer, easier connections.
- Programmable to suit different voltage requirements.
Additional Information
- Some welders (Cigweld, Lincoln, Kemppi, SafeTac) need 30+ amps load for VRD switching.
- Testing is performed by welding at 90–150 amps for 2–3 seconds.
- Optional external load resistor allows non-welding testing.
