PPT-1 Portable Pulse Tester
The PPT-1 Portable Pulse Tester is a low-cost field tool for testing a meter’s KYZ pulse outputs. The PPT-1 supplies its own wetting (sense) voltage to the relay’s output terminals and visually displays the closures or “pulses” of that output. In addition, it features a two-tone audio output that allows the technician to “hear” the changes of the KYZ output. It is configured in Form C (3-Wire) format, but can be used in either Form C or Form A (2-Wire) mode.
The PPT-1 can be used with either mercury-wetted or solid-state relay outputs. It is battery powered with two AA replaceable batteries.
Designed for the rigors of the field, the PPT-1 is packaged in a hand-held ABS enclosure. Three leads
with alligator clips are provided in standard Red-Yellow-Black colors for K, Y and Z respectively. Upon
each closure of the KYZ switch, the tester will display continuity between K and Y or K and Z terminals.
Super-bright Red and Green LEDs are sunlight readable to insure that pulse output operation can be
easily observed in the field. A momentary Pulse-to-Test pushbutton switch allows for battery use only
when intended.
