The Trig-Tek™ 850A/B Contact Chatter Detector provides a means of monitoring the continuity of switch or relay contacts while being subjected to environmental stress.

Trig-Tek™ 850A/B
The 850A/B has 10 channels, each with a separate current source to activate the contacts. Contact “Curr” dial and “X1-X0.1” switch sets the current of all the channels simultaneously for 0.1 to 11 mA. “Timing Interval” controls provide for setting from 1 to 999 μs or 1 to 999 ms for the maximum time a discontinuity can exist. Each channel has a “Fault” LED that will illuminate if a discontinuity exists for a longer period of time than is set by the “Timing Interval” switch.
The LED will remain illuminated until reset either by the front panel “Reset” switch or remotely via a reset terminal. The 850A/B has a terminal strip where the fault
condition of each channel can be recorded “Low” (No Fault) or “High” (Fault). Either Normally Closed (NC) or Normally Open (NO) contacts can be monitored.
A toggle switch on each channel permits selection of “NC” or “NO”-type contacts.

The 850A/B has 10 channels, each with a separate current source to activate the contacts. Contact “Curr” dial and “X1-X0.1” switch sets the current of all the channels simultaneously for 0.1 to 11 mA.
