The Bierer Meters AV300 is a versatile voltage detector for both proximity and direct contact applications, designed to detect voltages from 240V to 300kV line to ground (0 to 500kV phase to phase). Here’s a breakdown of its key features:
Dual Application Design:
- Proximity Detection: Can detect voltage from the ground on bare overhead lines without making physical contact, ideal for preliminary safety checks.
- Direct Contact Detection: Use the probe tip to directly touch conductors or test points for precise voltage readings on overhead or underground.
Audible & Visual Alarms:
- Bright 360° Light Array: Provides clear visual indication of voltage presence from any angle.
- Loud 112 Decibel Alarm: Alerts you to potential danger, especially helpful in noisy environments.
Technical Specifications:
- Operating Range: 240V to 300kV Line to Ground (0 to 500kV Phase to Phase)
- Activation Threshold: Meets ASTM Thresholds
- Construction: Water-resistant and robust for everyday use.
- Carrying Case: Comes in a durable cotton bag for convenient storage and transport.
Additional Features:
- Detects both nominal and induced voltages.
- Can test capacitive test points and secondary voltage on bare or insulated cables.
- Easy to use, no voltage scale selectors or multipliers needed.
