The CTI (Comparative Tracking Index) Test Apparatus is a highly versatile and precision-engineered device designed to evaluate the resistance of solid insulating materials against electrical tracking under moist conditions. This apparatus is manufactured in compliance with IEC 60112, ASTM D3638 – 12, IS 2824, and other international standards, ensuring accurate and reliable test results.
Key Features
- Robust Construction: The inner body is made of stainless steel for durability and corrosion resistance, while the outer body is constructed from mild steel for structural strength.
- User-Friendly Operation: The apparatus features a reset switch on the control panel, allowing users to pre-set the desired number of drops as per test requirements.
- Automated Testing Mechanism: The system exposes test specimens to electrical stress under controlled conditions, with electrolyte drops injected at defined intervals to assess material performance.
- Tracking Resistance Evaluation: The test determines the relative resistance of solid insulating materials by analysing the number of drops required to cause electrical tracking. The likelihood of tracking decreases as the applied voltage is reduced below a critical threshold.
Technical Specifications
- Complete Interactive MMI (Man-Machine Interface): Self-explanatory and user-friendly operation.
- Voltage Range: As per standard testing requirements.
- Current Range: Adjustable with precise control.
- Digital Display: Real-time voltage and current monitoring.
- Drop Control System: Digital drop counting with a peristaltic pump for precise electrolyte dispensing.
This CTI Test Apparatus is an essential tool for quality control and research applications in the electrical and material testing industries, ensuring compliance with global safety and performance standards.
