The advanced HAL LED low power safety tester from Clare (www.clare.co.uk/HALLED) will be the focus of the company’s display (Stand No. J42) at the Lux Live 2014 lighting exhibition.

Aimed specifically at LED manufacturers, the tester provides power measurement with a resolution of 200mW. This high resolution, low power provides improved control of the output of products under test, ensuring that quality control aspects of a functional test are within acceptable limits.

End-of-line tests can be completed with the additional benefit of assessments to confirm product functionality. The HAL LED also enables users to meet the safety compliance requirements for standards, including BS EN 60598, covering the safety of lighting equipment such as lamp holders, lights and fluorescent light.

The HAL LED meets the requirements of national and international safety legislation, including the Low Voltage Directive (LVD), and provides power/leakage, AC/DC Hipot (FLASH/Dielectric Strength), insulation and ground/earth bond test capability to ensure products are safety tested during design and manufacture.

Also showing at Lux Live will be the New Sentinel 501, designed for Type Testing requirements and Clare’s STM/L bench top tester, providing the complete suite of production line electrical safety tests, enabling compliance with the Lighting Association Code of Practice, the LIF recommendations and all relevant international technical conformance standards including EN 60598, UL 1598 and CSA C22.2.
