Once connected by the operator, the Clinton FL-20A makes all necessary adjustments and determines the location of a failure. This removes the need for specialized training by operators and let anyone easily use the equipment.

Key Features:

  • The digital FL-20A automates cable fault detection, reducing the time and training required to find problems.
  • Detects opens, metallic shorts, or high voltage shorts between conductors or between conductor and shield.
  • Quick and easy pinpointing of faults.
  • Simple operation:
    • Connect the FL-20A test probes to each end of the cable under test.
    • Enter the cable length on the digital touch screen.
    • Select “Shorts” or “Opens” to begin the test.
  • Rapid calculation of fault site distance from each test probe.
  • Displays fault location in feet or meters.
  • Provides a suggested trim area.
  • Faults can be cut out or repaired, salvaging the remaining good product and resulting in significant savings.
