Description
MICROTEST 8740NK-1024P 1,024-Pin 2-Wire Cable & Harness Tester, 1 kV DC
The MICROTEST 8740NK-1024P is a 1,024-pin 2-wire cable and wire harness tester with continuity measurement from 100 mΩ to 52 Ω. Its two-wire measurement method supports general wiring and connection checks on production cable assemblies. It provides DC Hipot testing up to 1 kV, insulation resistance covering 0.1 MΩ–1.2 GΩ, open/short testing, intermittent-fault detection and resistor, capacitor and diode checks. The 1,024-point K configuration provides additional connection capacity in a 435 × 270 × 360 mm enclosure. Storage for up to 500 test files and RS-232, USB Host, printer and remote interfaces support repeat production work.
- 2-wire measurement with 1,024 test-point configurations.
- Continuity resistance from 100 mΩ to 52 Ω, with a 35 mA measurement current.
- Open/short, intermittent continuity, intermittent open/short, single-side testing and terminal judgement.
- K enclosure with 16 front connector slots for high connection-count fixtures.
- NK: DC Hipot up to 1 kV; NAK: up to 700 V AC and 1 kV DC.
- Insulation resistance covering 0.1 MΩ–1.2 GΩ.
- Component checks: resistance 100 mΩ–2 MΩ, capacitance 10 pF–3 µF and diode voltage 0.1–6.8 V.
- Automatic circuit learning for connection-pattern inspection.
- Up to 500 stored test files, programmable continuous testing, pin search and self-diagnosis.
- RS-232, USB Host, Print and Remote interfaces; optional PC Link and production accessories.
- Production inspection of cable and wire harness assemblies with up to 1,024 test points.
- General continuity and connection checks using two-wire fixtures.
- Electrical inspection of automotive and consumer-electronics harnesses, connectors and flexible flat cables.
- Detecting intermittent connections during handling or movement of the assembly.
- Checking resistors, capacitors and diodes incorporated into cable assemblies.
- Dielectric-strength and insulation testing within the selected model’s ratings.
