Above Ground Insulator Tester – Model RF-IT Precision Testing for Pipeline and Flange Bolt Insulation

$675.00

Description

The Above Ground Insulator Tester (Model RF-IT) is a portable, handheld diagnostic tool designed to test the effectiveness of above-ground pipeline insulators and detect electrical shorts, especially in flange bolts. Utilizing radio frequency (RF) technology, this tester provides pinpoint accuracy in locating insulation failures—making it an essential tool for pipeline maintenance professionals.

Engineered for use on structures with or without cathodic protection (CP), the RF-IT Above Ground Insulator Tester emits an audible signal that increases in frequency as it nears a fault, while an LCD sliding scale visually confirms proximity. Whether you’re checking insulators or tracing shorts bolt-to-bolt, this rugged and reliable tester delivers fast, accurate results.
