SAGAB LV50 Volt Stick Non-Contact Voltage Tester
The SAGAB LV50 Volt Stick Non-Contact Voltage Tester helps users check for AC voltage without direct metal contact. It detects voltage from 50 V to 1000 V AC, which makes it suitable for many live voltage checks. Its high sensitivity helps identify unexpected live voltages in materials, devices and work areas.
This tester is designed for use in hazardous and potentially explosive atmospheres. It holds ATEX and IECEx approval for intrinsically safe use. As a result, it suits gas, petrochemical, utility and infrastructure environments where safety control is critical.
Safety For Hazardous Areas
Many leading UK utilities and service providers use the LV50 for field voltage checks. The SAGAB LV50 Volt Stick Non-Contact Voltage Tester supports checks on metallic surfaces, pipework and cables. Therefore, engineers can use it to help identify potentially lethal voltages before work continues.
A safety handguard helps users avoid unplanned contact with live conductors. The fully insulated unit supports safer handling during voltage checks. It also meets CE approval and IEC 61010-1, CATIII 1000 V AC approval.
Approved Power And Set Options
Users must fit the correct battery for safe use in Ex areas. The GN24A is the only approved battery for this tester, as well as the LV12, EX230 and MagnetStick Ex models. Using any other battery will invalidate the Ex certification.
The supplied information shows two different set types. One set type includes the SAGAB LV50 Volt Stick Non-Contact Voltage Tester as the approved voltage indicator. The other set type includes the GN24A approved battery, which supports Ex certified use of the tester.
