Hipot Testers and Electrical Safety Testers
| A hipot tester (hi pot tester or hy-pot tester) and instruments for Dielectric Withstand tests are used for performing either a series of or a specific electrical safety test on electrical components and products to ensure they meet operator safety requirements as well as comply with UL, CSA, IEC, and other standard certifying bodies. A high grade hipot medical safety analyzer must be able to perform high precision hi-pot testing and have reporting capabilities to indicate tested equipment falls within required specification. |

Hipot Testers and Electrical Safety Analyzer - performs hipot testing, insulation resistance tests and ground bond tests. CaptivATE Automation Software is available.
Specialty Hipot Testers - used to perform high-voltage AC Hipot, ACDC Hipot and DC Hipot testing as well as insulation resistance testing and ground bond tests
Multi-Purpose Hipot Testers - performs insulation resistance testing, ground continuity and they have a broader testing range for AC Hipot, ACDC Hipot and DC Hipot tests. CaptivATE Automation software is availble.
Basic Hipot Testers - economical, easy-to-use Hipot testers that perform simple AC Hipot, ACDC Hipot and DC Hipot tests
The medical safety analyzer and hipot testers shown in the tables below represent some of the highest quality electrical safety test units available.
