Voltage Indicator LEDs
|
DeadEasy is a switchboard mounted, voltage indicator that includes a self test function. It is a 3 phase indicator that is primarily used to verify safety isolations as part of a lockout procedure.
DeadEasy three phase indicator tests an electrical circuit by sensing the existence or absence of an electric field surrounding the electrical phase conductors. In essence, DeadEasy is a permanently installed, non-contact, three phase indicator.

The green LED is illuminated when the circuit is dead / deenergised. This rules out the question - Did the lamp fail as I turned the switch off or is the led indicating that the power is really off?
While the power is off and the green LED is illuminated, initiating a self test momentarily illuminates the red LED. However, the self test is not just a test of the red LED function. The self test initiates a momentary test signal onto all three sensing conductors. Using this approach the correct function of the sensing conductors, logic processing unit, red LED and all interconnecting wiring is confirmed. A true self test!
DeadEasy sensing conductors do not electrically connect to the power circuit under test. The insulated sensing conductors are wrapped around the insulated power conductors during installation. This approach eradicates the risk of the voltage detector introducing a weak point into your power system. A weak link than can break catastrophically during power system voltage surges and elevated switchboard temperatures. Just ask your self - Why introduce a safety device that potentially introduces a new safety risk?

Redbusbar will be exhibiting at "Safety 2012" June conference and exhibition in Denver, Colorado. The conference and exhibition is the premiere education event for the prestigious American Society of Safety Engineers (ASSE). In recent months interest from the USA and Canada has been increasing strongly. While we only have a few major customers in North America word seems to be getting out. This is due mainly to the fact that the common sense approach that we take to achieving high integrity safety isolations is appreciated internationally.
At the exhibition booth we will have demonstrations running for both DeadEasy - Voltage Indicators and IsolationPoint - Isolation Management System. Please visit our booth if you have an interest in isolations. We would welcome your insights into the subject. All news Subscribe |
