The new Cable Tester CT15i

CT15i - The successor of our winning model CT15 (that has been implemented more than a thousand times) has adopted its forerunner's decisive performance features and has been launched with many additional functions.
Even more has been added, amongst other things significantly more processing power that has made an expansion of functionality possible. Compared to its forerunner, the display has tripled dimensions as well as options for VGA and Ethernet. Not only have the proven functions remained the same, the price has too!

The Cable Tester CT15i presents itself in a particularly compact as well as a modern robust metal casing design. Communication takes place via large buttons and the 4.8" display on the device or via an external keyboard; upon request, a display on a VGA-monitor is also available. Through various interfaces and a variable sequence control, the device can be used as a stand-alone cable tester as well as a master or slave device. As a master, the Cable Tester CT15i can integrate and control other sub-systems; as a slave, perfect integration into your existing or planned environment or machine is possible. All advantages of crosslinking, such as the central management of the testing programs, amongst other things, become reality with the Ethernet option.

Through precise, analog measurement technology, not only are qualitative high-class results achieved during testing of the pure wire harnesses, but are also covered by other electrical or electronic components in the testing segment.

Areas of Application

The cable tester CT15i  is deployed in the quality control for the production test and final inspection of wire harnesses and electrical or electronic components. The scope ranges from simple computer cables up to wire harnesses of medium complexity for the automotive industry.
