Comtest Technologies, accredited southern African partner to power and energy measurement company Radian Research, is proud to announce the arrival of Radian’s RB-10 Bantam Lite - the first in a new generation of portable field meter test solutions.
The Bantam line of portable test solutions are designed for accurate, fast closed-link testing of all single and polyphase energy meters. The Bantam Lite combines reliability and advanced test capabilities in a light weight meter. Equipped with Radian’s RD-20 or RD-21 solid-state reference standard, Bantam Lite provides the accuracy and traceability required to meet the increasing test demands of today’s electricity metering.
The Bantam’s handheld controller automates testing allowing quick accurate test and data storage eliminating operator error and return visits. Bantam’s ability to fully test meters on-site reduces meter expense in maintained inventory by utilities allowing the meter to remain in service and not returned to the shop for testing.
Designed with real world information based on customer evaluation the Bantam is truly built with utilities in mind. Customer demand dictated the following design:
- Lightweight (less than 14kg)
- Single and polyphase meter support
- Closed link meter test compatibility
- Wide voltage range (69 to 480)
- Independent testing (with or without PC)
