The meter can be used where ever safety is important. It is ideally suited to situations where it is necessary to check welders, power tools, three-phase devices and household appliances.

Welding machinery and equipment

The Sonel PAT-96 was created for testing welding equipment in compliance with the EN 60974-4 standard.

Capabilities

Thanks to the extensive measuring functions, the Sonel PAT-96 enables comprehensive checking of electrical appliances.  The touch screen and auto test procedures section make testing quick and efficient. The automatic procedure wizard means even there is more flexibility for the instrument.

The meter has a built-in help system and also is able to connect with a label printer and QR scanner, which greatly facilitates the record keeping of appliances.

The following are examples or printouts that are available:

  • Initial measurement report
  • QR code which stores unique data to identify the device in the database.
    • This data can be read and added to the meter memory using the optional QR code scanner.

The whole product is presented in a compact and durable housing which provides the instrument protection during both measurements and transport.

Features
