How it Works
The heart of the T3D is an accurate linear sweep generator
combined with a sensitive phase detector. The swept frequency is
applied to the transducer and the phase change is read and stored at
approximately 700 points. After correcting all the readings for cable
and transducer capacitance the significant changes are displayed on the
10 LED bar graph display. Each LED corresponds to a distinct frequency
band and is illuminated at a brightness proportional to the corrected
phase change. Because of the combination of brightness and frequency
information, the display presents a unique signature for the
transducer. Should you test a faulty or improperly wired transducer no
LEDs will illuminate.
Using the T3D
Connect a multi-sensor transducer to the 8-pin connector. Press the
power button and check the display. A good transducer will light the
display showing resonance at one or more frequencies. Next, press the
function button to check for leakage. A DC voltage is applied to the
transducer element and the leakage current measured and displayed over
the range of 10 ohms to 10 megohms. Another press of the function
button starts the temperature test. Temperature data from the
transducer's thermistor is accurately read in degrees C or F. Press the
function button again to start the speed transducer test. The speed
indicator flashes and runs up the bargraph when the paddle wheel is
spun. Both Hall effect and reed switches are tested correctly. Quickly
test multi-sensor transducers with one simple instrument on the spot,
and determine if the trouble is in the display, transducer or wiring.
Standard transducers are easily checked for resonance and leakage with
the supplied test cable.
Test cable and battery included!
