Dual-Handle High Voltage Discharge Resistor Tool Caterpillar 3316563

The Dual Handle High Voltage Discharge Resistor Tool is a safety tool used in the maintenance of high-voltage systems within equipment. Equipped with dual insulated handles, the tool ensures the operator's safety while discharging high-voltage capacitors. The integrated resistors gradually release stored electrical energy, preventing sudden discharges that could cause injury or equipment damage. This tool is required for technicians working on electric or hybrid equipment, where high-voltage components are common. The primary function of the Dual Handle High Voltage Discharge Resistor Tool is to safely discharge stored electrical energy from high voltage capacitors, ensuring that maintenance or repair work on equipment can be conducted without the risk of electric shock.Attributes:• Provided with 1 meter (3 feet) cable between discharge sticks.• Includes carry case with foam insert.• Used to discharge Voltage up to 3 kilovolts from capacitor.• Has a resistance of 2.4 kilo ohms.Applications: The Dual Handle High Voltage Discharge Resistor Tool is stored in the maintenance toolkit or safety equipment compartment within the service area of equipment. It is used on-site whenever high-voltage systems require servicing or repairs, particularly in electric or hybrid equipment.
