The RESISTOMATŽ model 2329 from burster has now been expanded by a version where up to 6 test samples can be plugged-in and switched over. The 4-wire channel switch can be operated manually, via PLC with 3 bits or RS232/IEEE488. Dealing with purely ohmic test samples up to 6 parts can be measured within 500 ms. This enables a cost saving installation of resistance measurement test places within large-scale production fields.

Measurement ranges from 200,00 mW up to 200,00 kW and a resolution of up to 10 ľW result in a measuring accuracy of 0.04 % rdg. For test samples, where temperature is relevant, such as samples made of copper, aluminium or brass, temperature can be compensated by an external Pt100 sensor or by a fast reacting pyrometer. For the classification and selection of the test samples a quadruple limit comparator with switchable outputs is available.

The integrated data logger is able to store up to 20,000 measuring values and thus guarantees a perfect quality assurance. Besides that a RS232-, IEEE488- and PLC-interface enables an easy integration into fully automatic production process controls.

The instrument has proven for resistance and conductivity measurements at melting fuses, airbag igniters, magnet coils for the automobile and electro industry, contact resistances with 20 mV limit, welded joints of commutators and so on.
