Viavi Aeroflex PSD60-1AF Features and Specifications *
It is a portable battery powered military aircraft test set. It is a lightweight, solid-state device that allows technicians to test and troubleshoot probes and wiring on tanks installed in many types of aircraft so they will give proper readings when the tank is full or empty.
This aviation test equipment is a tester, which may simulate one or 2 capacitors at once in calibrating any AC capacitive liquid quantity gauging section. This respected test set is widely used among rotary and fixed-wing military aircraft operators worldwide.
Given the importance of these measurements, this test equipment augments the work performed by operators and technicians through accurate measurement & simulation of aircraft fuel tank capacitance, which helps quickly identify probes, wiring, compensator faults and calibrate any out of specification fuel quantity systems. This equipment allows for accurate capacitance simulation and insulation testing promoting adherence to maintenance protocols improving diagnostic accuracy leading to more reliable and safer aircraft operations.
Its price and features make it an extremely competitive fuel quantity tester in the marketplace.
Key Functions & Features
- Measure the insulation resistance in megohms of capacitive liquid quantity transmitters (probes) and/or aircraft wiring.
- Solid-state circuits and LCD backlit display for low power consumption and high reliability
- Lightweight aluminum case has hinged compartment in lid for test lead storage
- Battery-powered for complete portability and ease of maintenance
- Pushbutton "extended range" switch allows readings to 9,999 pf or 10,000 megohms - over-range indicator on LCD
- Tested / cleared for use in any function with fuel on tanks; since it's battery power, no voltage(safety) checks are needed
- Small size permits testing in restricted spaces
Application
The manufacturer states it is widely used by both rotary and fixed wing military aircraft operators.
Compatible Aircraft:
The unit is designed to work with military fixed-wing aircraft and rotary-wing aircraft that are equipped with a compatible AC capacitive fuel, oil or LOX quantity systems. Use should be verified for compatibility with the applicable aircraft Technical Order, maintenance manual, or system documentation.
To confirm your aircraft is eligible for the upgrade, contact AvionTEq.
