Martindale FL30 Lamp Tester

The Martindale FL30 Lamp Tester provides a fast and effective way to test gas-filled lamps without the need for removal. This compact handheld tool generates a high-frequency voltage of approximately 3kV to ionise fluorescent, neon, and other gas-filled lamps. It offers a convenient and reliable method for checking whether a lamp is faulty before attempting replacement. The simple one-button operation ensures ease of use for electricians, maintenance professionals, and facilities teams.

Effortless Testing for Various Lamp Types

Designed for versatility, the Martindale FL30 can test a wide range of gas-filled lamps, including fluorescent, low-pressure sodium (SOX), high-pressure sodium (SON), mercury vapour, metal halide, and neon tubes. The high-frequency voltage excites the gases within the lamp, allowing instant identification of functional lamps. This makes it an essential tool for electrical maintenance teams who need to diagnose faulty lighting efficiently.

Compact Design with Extended Reach

With its lightweight and ergonomic design, the Martindale FL30 Lamp Tester is easy to carry and store in a tool pouch. The included telescopic antenna extends reach, allowing users to test ceiling-mounted fluorescent tubes without the need for ladders or platforms. This feature reduces downtime and improves safety by minimising unnecessary work at height. The included soft carry case ensures protection and portability for daily use.

Whether for electrical maintenance, commercial lighting checks, or quick troubleshooting, the Martindale FL30 provides a simple yet effective solution. Its fast testing capability helps professionals save time and effort while ensuring that lighting systems operate efficiently. Supplied with a 9V battery and user instructions, it is ready to use straight out of the box.
